I don't know maybe I'm saying it wrong when I look up in searches. But all I can tell u is I get up on the converter to about 2000 and try to take off but for some reason the car kinda feels like its stepping to the right as I take off. I have qa1 12 way shocks set on 1 full loose and running 18 lbs on Mickey t's drag radials. I have an adjustable torque arm set at -2 and non adjustable lower control arms set on lowest setting on relocation brackets. Funny thing is first two passes were great no spin but after that all 3 passes just stepped to the right and spun.

If those are your rear shocks you mentioned they need to be tightened up. My car used to do what you are describing on stock shocks but it went away when I bought some Strange SA.

for some reason i do feel like the posi is giving up on me cause as i was doing a burn out it kinda felt like the tires stopped spinning but the motor was still spinning. also yea i really do think i need an alignment but like mentioned before i need adjustable lower control arms.
heres the break down on the runs just to give u a little more insight.
first run was 20 psi number 1 setting on rear shocks (loose) and it pulled a 1.64 60'
second run was 20 psi but shocks on number 5 setting and it pulled a 1.64 60'
car didnt spin on first 2 passes so i decided to get up on the converter and try for a better 60' then all went to hell.
thrid pass was 21 psi shocks on 5 and it spun and stepped to the right
after i felt it step to the right thats when i started noticing problems like mentioned with the posi. u know now that i think about it i think the posi is done for. ****.
