Watched the vids again, and they are still pretty good.
I cant figure out what is with the "Ready, Set, Go" thru the patch of water though. Drop that thing into second, dump it at about 4k, and stand on the brake. Stay the hell out of any moisture unless you have DR. Also, guys you have the second stongest tranny anyone ever put into a car. Power shift that thing, and pickup about 2/10s.
I'm done armchair Quater backing now.
Good job guys
Rob

Trust me, Rob, I was power shifting, but I was spinning all the way down, as were most of the guys. It was just really dusty..

Yep, spinning the whole way. Too much gravel and grit! Can't you tell by the 60' times.

I'll take your guys word for it. Just looks differant on video I guess.
But with mid 80's mph there had to be some traction, unless the trap/et sensor was wrong, then that opens another can of worms.
BTW alot more people were there than I would have thought. This was a good idea!

I had no problem hooking up with RPMs up to 2500 ... only time I spun or bogged was when I pushed it to 3000 for takeoff ... the 2.282 60' was probably one of the better ones there

Less power usually means more traction...
