I need to get back to the TSP guys and ask if they deleted that.

Even though his 60 ft wasnt great, no way was he spining the whole way,if he was he would feel it, and yes his trap speed should be a lot better, it would of helped doing a couple runs and go from there. For all we know his floor mat scrunched up under the gas pedal on this one...Start at ground zero, check all fluids, try to simualte the run again, maybe with a buddy on each side of the road. When you let off the gas does the car slow right down fast, maybe you have a caliper hanging up, this could be alot of things...

Take it back to the track and just try new things. Try not stalling it up and see what she runs. Then slowly work on getting the hang of stalling it up and launching(you can do this on back roads as well). Your 60 ft times need work. Get that lower and your times will drop. My guess is you need more seat time in the car practicing launching with that stall. Definatly need to call who ever tuned your car. Do you have a dyno graph?

Yeah I'm going to try again tomorrow. I have not gone out to the track after the tune but still even without the tune I should have done better. I figured I would ask and see if maybe I broke something before I go out again.
