launhing at 2000 rpm then punching the gas, you would think it would hook, maybe he was outside of the track groove at the track would this make a big traction differance.

Yea something is not right. It shouldn't spin the tires. I have launched my car at 4500-5000 rpm at 700+whp and it would hook (I have had couple 1.4X 60ft with stock gears and many 1.5X 60ft times) no issues.
