Need some opinions, of course need to go faster. 1.32s 60ft in this video.

31" tires, 6600rpm, 5.13 gears. 2.74 first gear. No torque R5P7.

Thanks to Mafo for the video!

Looks like the tire roll out is at 1:1 with track speed. Take some hook out of it. Try to get the tire to spin about 2 revolutions for 1 roll out distance.
A few things I would try...
Tighten shock extension in the rear.
Raise launch rpm.
Do one change at a time and record the results.

Rebound and compression on the rear shocks is to loose. Throws the housing out and bounces it back. It's hitting the tire pretty hard so my bet is slowing the the housing down with tighter rebound won't hurt anything. Once the rebound is under control it may not take much more compression to keep the housing/tire down on the track. How much air pressure? Might like more tire psi as well. What does the car weigh?

Thanks for the tips, i`ll try some shock adjustments first.
I have used 9 or 10psi at tires. car weight is 2788lbs.

Wont be able to raise the rpm anymore, maybe i´ll change my other converter which is looser so i get more rpm out of it.
