Oh well.... I still cant figure it out!

I had BFG drag radials on for a while ( they only lasted me about 5000 miles ) and hit the drag strip a few times!

My best time was 13.6. I couldnt figure out why. I would burn out and at the lights, at 2500 rpm, the car would bobble and crappy accelration, and at 3000 rpm, I would get wheel spin and had to feather the throttle all the way through 1st gear!!! I never got a good take off!
