Just need more seat time at the track, launching AWD isn't as easy as people say it is or how easy I make it look. lol

Do you have any IAT logs? Because it might be time to get a better FMIC or a small w/m setup to control the IAT's.

Did you try seeing how hot your FMIC was between runs?


BTW what track did you go to?

Well at least he posted his times even though they were bad, most people would just not post them at all.


His trap speed were pretty consistent.

Ok, so you went up to IL. I was trying to find which track you went to but nothing in MO was open on a Tuesday.

Wow that track is pretty close to sea level, around 410 ft elevation but you were racing in about 1600-1700ft DA.
If you ever want to see the temps or DA for the track and day you ran you can use http://www.dragtimes.com/da-density-...calculator.php
