This may sound weird or backwards but try lowering the tire pressure. I had the same problem as you did. The more pressure I put into the tires the harder it would dead hook and bog the car. Next time out give it shot, if it doesnt work, bump the pressure up. I usually run depending on the track condition between 13 - 16 psi. I've run as low as 12psi. So far my best 60 on motor is a 1.61

ok, good to know. Maybe I'll try that first. If the weather holds, I should be back on Sunday.

nah, just been really really busy lately, and its a pain constantly changing tires. Plus I broke 11s before the end of the year so I'm happy with that. And the weather isn't looking so good.
