Just curious becasue I've got the spohn chromemoly bar back there with energy suspension endlinks, but we all know I'll never know how it works haha

That would be a cool test, using the same bar but with 2 different style endlinks

I wasn't mad that it spun I was mad that It hooked better on the street tires and such than what it has now honestly I think it has to do with the pinion angle and the fact I still was not use to the new clutch. also as joe saw I sure as hell wasnt getting the nittos hot enough. I would say I drive my car more than any one on this site so for me it is best to keep it a good driver then tune that set up to its best it can do at the track .

its just going to take some fine tuning, tire pressure, burnout and launch rpm. those nittos may just not be enough tire but i wouldnt lose faith in them yet. notice how after lowing the tire pressure and doing the big burnouts the car would hook, but the clutch didnt last long enough to try launching at higher rpm. its also going to be more difficult to balance between tire spin and bogging the car with the 28s and 3.73s since the tires have to be hit real hard to get anything decent for a 60 ft but you already know that.

My car has a hard time with 60 uless I beat the fuck out of it. I have a slight vibration at speed(65ish) pinion angle is right. Control arm angle isn't. How are yours with your housing? Mine are level with the ground with the cars full wieght. I degreed them and there like barely positive. Like +.5*. I say check all your angles make sure your hitting the tires right before changing much of anything else.

ya they are probably way to much I have them in the bottom or the second to last hole in the relocation brackets. I have a vibration also but it only started after i did the trans cross member with the stock torque arm then even with the adjustable it still isn't tuned in. I want to get the car on some blocks or tall jack stands level and check every thing out at some point.
