Default Solid axle 03 Cobra video..advise needed

http://www.vimeo.com/2519249

Not a great quality video but for now its all I have. The car actually went a 1.34 60 foot on this pass. The car went a 5.9x 1/8 at 118. 9.26 at 150 in the 1/4. I am wondering if you guys can reccomend anything based on the video. The car has Team Z relocated uppers, offset lowers, anti roll bar, Strange DA coilovers, and a 8.8 with 3.55 gear. Front end is all aftermarket Strange SA struts.

sick Cobra!

as for making it leave hard...keep playing with the suspension

I also realized the other nice rides in the vids where have traction issues too. ( not sure if it was the same day) I would probably write it off more in track prep and temps for that day.

Yeah the day was not perfect...but we did make improvement. Maybe the next good preped track and it will go in the 1.2x's.

Bone stock motor..., 3750 lbs, th400, 76 gts, still return style fuel system and 60 lb injectors. It hammers for what it is, IMO.

Bowling green can be tricky when the temps cool off. The track looses a ton of grip on the starting line which from the video's looks like what was happening to you all. We had problems there in the summer once the temps dropped at night. We started doing longer burnouts to get a much heat into the tires as possible along with a major air pressure drop...
