The launch was at 2,000 rpm and it gripped just fine, I'll try to bump it up also to 2,500-3,000 and see what happens.

Congrats, I'd take your ride over a Demon any day if given the choice!

Thank you, same here. Lol. I wouldn't trade this machine for a demon anyday. I've been telling people, the demon numbers are just claims, nobody really has put it on the track yet to produce real numbers, in real environments. I would really love to see if that heavy car can really put the times it claims.

Great run!...I ran a 10.51 with 5500 DA a couple of weeks ago in West TX with the same mods as you, minus the thermal pates. Who tuned your car? The transmission sounds like it is shifting perfect.

With that DA you're at a 9.65 around here.
up here in a negative day you're 9.5 or better.
from what I heard the Demon did 9.63 negative 1200ft at Englishtown.

Nice pass, I really liked your 60' results with so little of a burnout, people need to take note of that!
Have you removed the front sway bar yet? I would do that first before the rear.
I would be worried about wheel hop blowing the rear.. The spiders gears are the weak link in this rear from my understanding and wheel hop will take them out.
PS: What rear tires are you running?

Don't need a big burnout to get a big run. As a matter of fact, a really big burnout might be bad for the run if you hear the tires up too much. I just like to get the dirt off, then stage perfectly in the sticky part of the lane and let it rip, don't waste too much time, you want to do it with the tires still warm.
Avoid wheel hop also like you said, I've personally seen A few guys with c7z at the track blowing diffs due to wheel hop.
