Well here it is i ran 1/8 mile tonight and my best was 6.95 at 96.09 and with a 60 ft at 1.5964. fighting tracksion all night. tryed engament at 4600 rpm and 4200 rpm. im thinking of gearing up some to prevent spinning. I am geared 21/40. what do you guys think? That or dropping the belt down in the secondary?

are you running 1/8 mile only ? if i ran 1/8 only i would use 21-40. i don,t like lowering belt, changeing belt deflection, makes sled launch in lower gear. if thats what your thinking, i changed mine, sled got grossley faster. i been 6.55 1/8 @ 103 best. 3:16 (yammie tony)
Ya thats what im was thinking. Im going to try lowering the engagment some more and go from there. Around 3800 or 4000.
Im only running 1/8 mile.

stay with 21-40 3:16 (yammie tony)
Ya i will. im going to drop the engagment instead and let the gears do the work. I am looking at getting the g-g-g spring which is 40 pre-loaded 131 loaded

Are you spinning off the line? Those your skis come off the ground?

depends, i have rear set pretty stiff. i was having issue with red lites. hope i cured that. 3:16 (yammie tony)
do you still have the front shock in your rear suspension? i took mine off and have the front torque arm bottomed out. I had the rear solid but could not hook up. Now I have just a little transfer on my transfer rods.

i have not altered my stock skid at all. just made some changes. i am almost ridged in back. 3:16 (yammie tony)
Mine is basically rigid also. I had it rigid but could not hook up so i gave it a little transfer. Im going to try the lower engagment and then start working from there.
