Nice video Ryan, in the slow motion you can see the tire hit really hard and bounce before the front raises. Maybe playing with some shock settings will get the rear end stabilized a bit and drop your 60'.

If you step up to a 29x10.50, you are going to drop your RPMs a bit at the end of the track. Should result in a lower ET/ Greater MPH.

Might lose a little 60ft and still not get there.

Up the boost, thats free. Buying another set of tires cost $$$

He is crossing the line at a pretty high RPM. Not sure how much more he can support. If he ups the boost, he might find that he is bouncing off the limiter at the end of the track because he picked up a couple MPH. I am not an expert on these LS engines, so I am learning as I go along.

Nice run! Your tire sure does shock when you launch. That may be effecting your 60, you think?

I agree, way too much squat at launch IMO.

Tighten up the rear shocks & give it a go.
