I ran three times.
1st Run: Normal tire pressure. I launched at about 5500 rpms. The tires spun very bad so I feathered the throttle and pulled a 14.76 at 95.07mph and 2.438 60ft.
2nd Run: I let the tire pressure out to 25psi on the rear wheels. I launched from about 5500-6000 rpms and the car caught good traction and bogged. I ran a 14.84 at 96.88mph and 2.351 60ft.
3rd Run: I launched from about 7000 rpms and got a good hole shot. The time was a 14.206 at 96.35mph and 2.130 60ft.
Every time I ran the gears all the way to redline and power shifted as well. The car seems like it was built for it honestly and took it like a champ. I've yet to grind any gears with this car in the past 2-3 months that I've had it.
Biggest factor I could say is your hole launch. Let some air out and just see what feels best for the track. It was in the 40s so traction sucked.
