Yep, that's why I asked. It's very real. While island is fun to run on, it's not the track to go to for numbers because it runs uphill!. Go to Englishtown or Lebanon Valley.or it is a very real possibility that the track sucks.
I forgot to tell you I was running 12-15 PSI of air in my drag radials> and even heating the heck out of them didn't help with my traction.
The only way to correctly center the rear end is to get a PHB. Quad shocks do not locate the rear end

You maybe heating them up to much.
The quadshocks are attached the frame and the Lower control arms, if that rear moves the LCA's will move and so will the Quads, but the situation is lessened if you have quad shocks. I'm not really talking about straight line shooting; although the shocks will still help. Removing the Quad shock is taking some of the stiffness out of your rearend. Your screwing the equilibriem when your taking the shocks off, just a matter time when your gonna rip your torque boxes out, the LCA's I mean, or you can weld some reinforced battle boxes with High tensile weld. What ever, not really worth arguing about, your vehicle, I'm pretty sure its in top shape anyway.
Op is your car lowered any?
Jeremy canter from my experience racing you need to ditch the 17 in radials and go to a 15 in radial or slick to get better et's. And if your shifting that thing a 7k that makes a good arguement for 4.56s......
You said you cut a 1.9 60'. What was the 1/4 ET and trap on that run?
my best is a 1.9 at 105 and that was a 13.6/ 13.5 ish ( my time slip's are at work in my tool box> I was showing them off )
And what was the 60' on the 13.6 @ 105+ run?
A 1.9 short time at 105+ should be good for high 12s. I still say that you either need more practice launching (or shifting, depending on the answers to above questions), or it is a very real possibility that the track sucks. Good track prep does make a world of difference.

I lived in Monroe. They're not too far. Especially if you wnt to give your car a fair shot.there too far from me to play at .

I still have quads because I'm running the stock control arms and from what I've always heard you will get wheel hope unless you have aftermarket control arms, so If you have aftermarket C/Rs take the quads off and see how you do !!
