launch rpm

Your flashing the converter now, and that usually gets you the most stall, but depending on how well your chassis works, going hard and preloading everything may get you a little more 60' and et. I've run a few 12sec cars with moderate converters similar to yours and got the best times loading them hard. It really depends on what your after and how the car's setup works. Most cars react differently, so just give some things a try.

I suppose my concerns are that by loading up the suspension hard will not allow it to work as well.

Sorry, i should have said depending how well or not your chassis is working. The cars I was talking about were stock street suspensions with V8 T-bars, stock shocks, etc. (meaning stiff). Just factory stuff with slicks bolted on.

That's why I said give it a try. We'll never know on paper or a screen, only the track will tell. :D
