I always had traction problems before the dragpack now with grip the torque is pulling the car out of the groove and I am not correcting it fast enough. Next couple Wednesday gonna concentrate on sub 120 passes staying in the groove and getting a real feel for the car.
I have made some late night passes on open highway and it is straight as an arrow cant quite figure why its dancing on the top end at the track...
maybe it's just cecil. i would probably be in the same boat with a bias-ply tire wheras i never ran on one. tried my friend's 6-speed ss once that had a very bad alignment and slicks/skinnies made it to 2nd gear and just drove it the rest of the way down the track. scared the **** out of me i thought i was gonna roll it but i may have just been that car.

good luck with it and just like mikes93 your mph is up there, so the car can/WILL go faster.
