How do i get my BB Dart to hook???

Worn out tires? Way too much pressure in them? Really poor track conditions?

Really, with that gear, you should be in high gear near the 1/8th. Can't see 500 hp blowing off a 12.5 slick at that point, regardless of the suspension.

Are you using slapper bars?

Adjustable pinion snubber? Must be a pretty crappy track to be spinning with slicks an 1/8th mile.:wack:

many mopar's on [STOCK] skinny REDLINE TIRES running high 9's and low 10's@140mph.. you have something way not right.. binding suspension...hard slicks is where i would start..

How old are the slicks?

What air pressure is in the slicks and when was the last time they were treated (sanded down)?

Sounds like they have to much air pressure

Since we're starting from scratch here.....Is this the first time you've driven a car with this much power? Any possibility that you are not "black tracking" but the suspension itself has issues that are making the car hard to drive? Meaning leaf spring bushings, or the front end.....alignment, ball joints, strut bushings, steering box, etc.

Just so some of the later arrivals here understand the above responses, the #1 post originally included.....

"I cannot go to full throttle until at least the 1/8th mile".......but that no longer appears there. :banghead:

Other the that, a lot of good tips/discussion here pertaining to launch, 60', and early run issues.
