Funny thing though, when I rev up past 1200 rpms, truck bogs down at start. 1200 rpms the truck still spins tires if I don't feather the throttle a little. If I don't feather the throttle, I lose the race at the launch with tires spinning too much.

I asked on here about that bog when i stall too much, several members said the computer pulls timing when u stall too hi. I usually leave bout 1500.

I bet a tune can fix that. Kent, what ya been up to?

3.15 gears SUCK!! No clue why they put them in. Especially in the FX packages which are their sport packages. Idiots I guess.

Irregardless, those are some decent times for a stock truck.

I wish i would have looked at what i launched at. Seemed pretty fast to me with the 60ft i got. i have seen an EB get a 1.8 with is rediculous...

Just got back from running mine today. FX2 super crew with 3.73's (5.0l). Start of the day was a 15mph headwind but when I didn't royally mess up the run (happened twice) I managed 15.41-15.47 sec anywhere from 89.1-90.5mph. My 60' times were no good, only 2.25-2.30. Was still 85 degrees outside today at the track. Had a blast and can't wait for spring with a 91 oct tune and cai/exhaust. Made 7 runs total today and as stated 5 of them were in the times posted above. The 15.41 was with next to no headwind but it wasn't my best 60' either. Was hoping for a 15.3x but there's always next time.

I assume its the tq management that is causing it. My 5 star tune didnt fix it, but mike doesnt reduce tq management much. He keeps things safe.

Torque management isn't so much a safety item as a comfort item...

With the tracks at San Diego being so slick, 1100 to 1200 is enough to get a lot of wheel spin. 1500, I'll be stuck at the tree lights doing a burn out.
