leaving @ 7k and bogging to 3k
Well I ran for the first time last night on the new et drag stiff walls and was launching at 7 k and bogging to 3k when I looked at the scan. It was knock retarding and pulling 6 degrees right there when I would bog. I tried clicking my front shocks from 3 up to 5. But it still bogged.
I was running 14 psi in the slicks should I start adding more air pressure? Or slip the clutch a little? I am already leaving at 7 grand.

It sounds like you definitely need more gear to not have to slip the clutch. Also, to help prevent bog with too small of a gear, raise the tire pressure until you get a rotation or 2 out of the rear tires during the launch before they grab. That will get your rpm up a little. A dead hook launch will take some serious gear.
And John is correct. Lots of things bang around at a 7000 dump.
