Hey Jim,

I am no expert, but according to Monte Smith, on a ladder bar car you stiffen the rear shock extension to reduce wheelies...

Perhaps the increased torque from the Alcohol will allow a higher ladder bar setting and still hit the tires enough to hook?

Also you might raise the air pressure 1/4 to 1/2 a pound and see if you can get a "little slippage" or wheel speed as they call it?

Interesting that you ran 30 degrees. Ron's manaul says to increase timing vs. gas.

Please post again when you try the 34 degrees.

Cheers,

Arnie
