new track times can't 60'

New track times. 60' 1.95 / 330 5.261 /1/8 7.850 94.71mph / 1000' 10.046
1/4 11.874 @ 124.08 mph

Can't get the car to hook. Best launch was 1500rps. Any higher would roast the tires (255/50/16 MT drag raidals 19 psi, 16, 14, 12psi).

I was getting my best 60ft times on ET Street Radials with close to stock tire pressure. How were your burn outs? Long and smokey, or short and sweet?

What was the track prep like? I've been to track days where next to no attention was paid to the track and everyone's 60ft times sucked.

Track prep was ok. My friend was in the other lane and had me to the 330. ran him down by the 1/8. Short burnout. Got right to the line. He has the 275/50/15 drag radials and less power and I had to run him down.

Maybe you are to fast, relasing your clutch, dear to be slow when releasing, at least 0.5 sec... Hmm, think you should see 1.65- 1.70 , at least...
12- 14 psi should be ok for your tires.
