Im no tuner and I dont run 8s but I would like to just lend you a little advice if you dont mind?I was jockin your car the whole night and most of the runs I taped where all your car cause I hear it is all motor.
I really like it and if it is all motor and you put the button on that car it is gonna fuckin fly. It reminds me or OUTLAWZ28s car but an LS1.
Anyway off your nuts now.
I noticed that even tho you came out of the hole like an animal you still had massive tire spin (at least from the passenger side tire).
Well like I said Im not some guru but I have been around a little.
If you tried a taller tire it would take some of that shock out and the car would hook way better. I know it is easy for me to say since Im not buying your tires or your next set but try to borrrow a taller set and see what happens.
By the way when you get that car to dead hook it will be one fuckin fast all motor car.

I think those tires were just a shot in the dark and good place to start. We realize he needs a little adjusting and it's already started. I think the tires will work out better next time you see them. IMO they were narrow as hell though.

The other problem Dave has is that he sets the car up to run both drag and autoX events. Not saying this is bad, because shit that car will be able to kick ass at either event, it just makes it harder to hook off the line with the harder suspension. But he is working on it and WILL have the best of both worlds if I know Dave. 
Then next month when my heads/cam come in it's spankin time on Black Magic!
