No Traction Action?? - HRP TX
Hey guys, I just came back from HRP in Baytown TX, and my car is running sloowww...
What can I do to make my car hook?
Is my car running slow for what I have done to it?
My setup:
'98 Z/28 M6 Hardtop
LS7 clutch
LS6 intake
Pro 5.0 shifter
1 3/4" Dynatech Supermaxx LTs and catted Y
SLP Lid / Ram air
GMMG exhaust
17 X 9.5 GM ZR1s
Spohn tunnel mounted T/A (at 0 degrees right now for street, I know..)
BF Goodrich G-Force Sports on the rear
Laptop tune (no dyno time)
I weighed the car at the track 3685 with me in it, and I weigh around 240...so 3445 with 1/2 tank of gas...
Track time:
'60 2.27
1/8th 8.89 @ 84.72
1/4 13.49 @ 107.36
Weather from NOAA:
84* F
45% Humidity
I am either bogging at the line, or wheel hopping pretty badly. I know one mod I need is the DRIVER mod... I am working on that...=)
Thanks everyone for helping me out!! I will probably be buying some nice DOT M/T slicks, what else do I need? Ideas?

I am an automatic guy and don't know jack sheet about manuals, however it seems like there is a small window for manuals.......one side is too much throttle and you either wheel hop like crazy or melt the tires, while the other side is too little throttle and you bog. Maybe all the driver mod needs is to practice enough at the track and find that window.
