between 3500-4g, slip it out, minimal wheel hop tires were at stock pressure

lower the tire pressure to around 20, maybe try a burnout in the water pit too...i ran a 15.1 w/ only injen SRI like that...also maybe invest in the Ingalls ETD...it allows for more aggressive launches...i have one, but i havent been to the track since I installed it.
