OK - I finally got the video to load of the test session on the Demon last week. All launches: Air:8.0, Rear shocks 4/4 1st launch front shocks - full stiff, launch rpm 4600, 60' = 1.373 ---- short shifted the run 1-2 @ 5800, 2-3 @ 6400 2nd launch front shocks - 3 from stiff, launch rpm 5000, 60' = 1.349 ---- short shifted the run 1-2 @ 6000, 2-3 @ 7100 3rd launch front shocks - 5 from stiff, launch rpm 5400, 60' = 1.311 ---- short shifted 1-2 @ 6800, 2-3 @ 7100 Yes - I see what the front wheel is doing when it lifts in the air. I'll get that sorted out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRt3oBYo2vA

Kool, car looks better in video than in the pic you have...
Observation, your not consistent in the burnout. Smoke has to fan out across the tire, you had one where you only got the center hot. For bracket racing, the key is to do the same thing exactly the same way everytime. Once you get in the habit, you will find it tough to change, and it will just be natural. Get one of your spotters to check tire temp as you stage, you will have the data to show as well.
2nd shock setting seemed the best from the vid, it carried the fronts the farthest, and kept the rear squatted the longest distance by the looks of it.
Car looks awesome!!!

Bill, What is your best 60'? I believe more starting line RPM to hit the tires harder will improve the 60' number significantly. But, it looks and sounds great, your Demon is one of my favorite cars. Frank

you can see in the first launch that it hopped a little with the lesser RPM
