couple things i see..... you need to do your burnouts in 2nd gear. You can't get enuff wheels speed with 4:10's to get the slicks hot like needed. Next you need to launch harder. If the bottle hoocked up to a button or throttle switch? you should be launching at 5k on slicks and bottle minimum. If you are launching any lower you are hurting your 60ft.

7.81? on a 200 shot? in a car that probably barely weighs 3000lbs? on slicks? That thing should run 7.81 on motor! hahaha

You need to get rid of the 5 spd and put a C-4 in it.

ill try the 5000 rpm launch and see if that makes a difference.
bottle is on a switch.

the problem that i found after the video was shot was that the throttle wasnt getting full pedal travel.i dont think im taking it back to the track till i get the suspension changed out with the new pieces.tubular a-arms,strange adjustable struts,CC plates and strange coilover conversion with QA1 135 # springs.
