Old Yeller vs Drag Truck "2021"

Hopefully, we can get these old things to hook up...
It may just be a smoke show.
This is my next step, traction. Right now I can't hook the 318. All the power in the world won't matter if a guy can't put it to the ground. The guy I know that's raced these trucks in stock eliminator for years and years might have a tip for me - or two.
