3.70 is as low as ill go. I still run it alot, and road trips are a must and I wont sacrifice my cruising rpm for a few tenths of a second. plus I plan on spraying 150 as soon as I make a 11 second pass N/A and 3.70's will work very well with spray.
My burn out is in second and my best results were when I started the burnout in the water and slowly rolled out. the problem I was having was I would hit the rev limiter almost immediately and then peddle back and it would start to bog and grip and just push the front. it was like I couldnt spin the wheels fast enough in second?

Honestly, your driving looks fine to me. The launch is a tough one to master. Every time I go to the track, it requires a totally different stragegy for launch due to weather and track prep. I'm on street tires though, which is tough.
I agree that a front line-lock would help a ton with heating up the tires. Your tires should be able to get fairly hot without the line lock though.

Even without perfect launches, you should still be seeing much more mph.

Go around the water box, then back into it with your back tires. drop the clutch and let them spin over a couple times in the water to get the tires wet all around, then pull forward out of the waterbox and do a burnout.

I agree that it sounds "flat" I just don't know how to fix it. Im hoping with the changes Dan has made will help! it sure feels alot stronger and on my little T&T on ramp I was hitting 4th alot sooner than I normally do!
