    Do you have any slapper bars or cal tracs on it? if not either one should help with the traction problems. also what tires are you running?

    i did just put cal tracs on the car adjustments can probably be made to help out....im running Mcreary tires.....i have et streets, but they are a different rims and i need the three inch studs for that to work......my friend might let me use a nine inch he has laying around with bigger gears and 3in studs already on it.....so hopefully before this next points race on the 22nd i will have things figured out.

    once again i stepped my best up by a little to a 12.49....we had made adjustments with the cal tracs and they hooked alot better. we are still dialing in the carb so hopefully i will have more improved numbers next week:clap:
