This is the only close up launch video I have of the car. It is definitely spinning on this launch, but looks to pick a tire up also. Any ideas on how to improve it?

Is the car leaning towards the passenger side? Maybe its just the camera angle (or my fat head)

It sits alittle lower on the passengerside. Thats where most of the weight is put.

It sounded like it may need a little more accelerator pump shot for a little longer

What makes you say that? I think I have it set up for a more heavy, short burst.
Looking at all the videos we have of the car, to me the front end comes up, then down and it unloads the tires. Hard to tell. This is the only video I have of behind the car. I want to be able to leave higher than 1100rpm. I know the first step is a call to Lenny.
