Ok fellas, so here it is, I already tossed it out there I am new to the Z and new to the whole tracking a rwd vehicle. That being said...

I went to the track tonight.. ran mostly 13.8's and one 13.703... I cannot for the life of me figure out how to launch this thing lol.. It seems like I either have to do a very low rpm launch, so I don't spin.. because if I don't launch really low I spin out and get some nasty wheel hop then by the time it grabs it pegs the limiter and my times are all jacked up.

Any tips on how to launch? or increase my 1/4 mile? If there is anything else I should disclose let me know and I will tell you.. need all the help I can get.
