Went to firebird raceway last night. Went 14.78 @ 93.55. With a good bit of wheel spin. I'm making a set of suspension limiting straps to help control body lift during acceleration. Heres a quick vid I made

I'm really surprised you're having traction issues like that, I can usually dead hook on my Revos, and managed to cut the 1.79 60' in my sig with it almost dead hooking. I guess your gears are doing it...

What was your 60'?

My truck is AWD so no 4hi or 4lo.
Track prep was not the best. They had to stop the races about 4-5 times to clean the track. about 15 mins after the races started, someone dropped oil all the way to the 1/8. my 60' was consistently 2.2 with one 2.3. I was on my stock 265/70R17s. If I would of kept my 285s on I'm sure it would have been less wheel spin.
I usually go to SIR. my previous best was was a 15.4 at 90 at sir. only things I changed, I swapped out a bad fuel pump, changed my flowmasters to magnaflows, and had the gears installed.

heres the time slip
r/t .087
60' 2.231
330' 6.215
1/8 9.494 @74.74
1000' 12.353
1/4 14.787 @ 93.55

I think I could get a solid 2.1 60 if I could get it to hook.

Heres a vid someone got of my truck. In the second race you can really see how hard my 1-2 shift is.
