Thanks, I dialed it back too much on that last pass and launch was too soft but alot better than when we started 60fts. Went from
1st pass 1.9
2nd pass 1.7
3rd pass bumperstand
4Th pass 1.4
And converter had 19% slip going through the traps with my 3.08 gears
Theres some things that need attention but looking to be really competitive in the lsx real street class next season
