Default Traction problems, new times

welll after going through a very long and painstaking break in period i finally turned the stang loose tonight. well as i figured i cannot get traction for shit if i try and launch hard. i have a g-tech meter and it has read perfect since ive had it. and here are the results after tonight.

1st run with heavy spinning and a horrible 60' of a 2.789 i ran a 15.1 which sucks.

next run i got a little better traction and pulled a 13.6 but still spinning massive until i hit 3rd.

had a few run after that which were all about the same times between 13.8-13.2, then.................

finally the best run i had all night was a 12.6 with a perfect launch and powershifting, it was a flawless run.

my best hp and torque are 300hp and 342 ft lbs.

only suspension mods i have are kenny brown sub frames, springs, and a set of 50/50 lakewood's. which im searching desperatly for the right set of upper and lower control arms. im hoping for a 12.3 with DR's. and i cant wait to get the 150 shot going so i cant get into the 11's

well my buddy has the g-tech actually. its not mine but after you calibrate it completely it is really close as long as you dont hit a bump or spin sideways or anything, his dyno from secret services said 393 and thats what the dyno said also but i think his Tq was off by like 3 ft lbs.

well, it has all forged internals with a PI head swap and pretty much every possible part that someone could put on it. long tubes, pullies, intake plentum from C&L, mass air meter, TB, aluminum driveshaft, 3:73 gears, king cobra clutch, and all controlled by a custom tuned diablo sport delta chip.

probably more stuff im just forgeting.
