Times with street tires on reserved tune.

Hey I just got back from the track and was a little dissapointed with my times. but it was all in the launch which is what I would like to discuss. I am breaking in the motor so it is on a rich tune at only 15psi. The mods are in my signature. Here is my best pass of the night. All 8 passes were 13.0-13.3 with 0 knock , so it was very consistent but the only time my car openened up was after the 60ft and then she got crazy out of control. But the 60ft and launches were horrible. I just didnt give it enough gas, guess I was afraid to break lose, but either way I still gassed it quite a bit, but still barely any boost even with the ebrake, which might I add is alot of crap to deal with at the line, lol. I also had 2 reaction times at .125 and .079. So that was cool. 13's on this motor I can hear it looking at me and going Give me more BOOST....

For your 60', maybe your running too rich down low. That will hurt spoolup. You say it goes big time after, so that might be when it gets leaner. Just a thought.
