My coupe launching

Well looks like it's going to go fast. Launched at 5,000RPM pulled a 1.72 60ft and ended with 13.2ET. I thought the car had 3.73 gears but after the bogging after the launch I think it has 3.55 or taller gears. Any thoughts or harsh commints?

Thats what Johnny said at the track. I didn't have a 6g pill or I would have tried it.

Mybe I should have slipped the clutch a little. Oh well I'll just spray it that will keep it from bogging.
 
try stiffening the rear shocks and launch higher

It has 50/50 lakewood shocks in the back, so should I change them to something diff?
Should I change launch RPM by 100RPM incurments(sp) or more?

Should change gears to at least a 3.73 or 4.10?

4.30 :eek5: Bet ya that thing roars to life!
 
Looks like it has too much pinion angle...do you know what you're running?What are you shifting at? If you're shifting at stock RPM's, I would probably run 4.10's...if you're at 6,500 run 4.30's.
