Before I got the procats I used my g-timer a lot and my times varied from 5.75-6.10 all the time depending on how the traction is and the street. I got the procats over a week ago and they are awesome. This morning I ran it three times and first I got 5.62, I spun off the line a little and I still pushed the gas really slowly. Second 5.60 same as the first spun a little too. Both 60' were 2.25, if I can get traction I would of got better. Third 5.78 and I spun all the way till the trannie hit second. Im lookin for advise here so I can get traction off the line. I have the A-Spec kit all around with michelin pilots A/S and a-spec suspension. Is there a better tire out there that will help me with traction or am I going to have to change the suspension so I transfer more weight to the front. I need some help here please. I wanted more power and I got it now, now I am dealing with traction conditions now. I know this car is capable of 2.1s in the 60' but I need traction. The michelin A/S are awesome for the rain, but I want traction on the dry road.

 

Wow, traction problems on an Automatic. Nice

 

if you compare your tq curve you can see your low rpm tq numbers are probably higher then ur max before the pro-cat. so...0-60 traction?....summer tires at a summer time maybe? i think more power on TL is for ez driving and faster "highway" reaccel./speed. this is a FWD after all.

 

just curious how you are launching..

are you using the brake and gas together?
just the gas pedal alone?
Shift from N to D?
Manual Mode?

 

Im launching by left foot on the brake and right foot on the pedal. I let go of the brake and press the pedal down at the same time.

 

Michelin PS2's ....you can't go wrong w/ that tire

 

maybe some sort of reversed staggared set up might work.....19's in the front....18's in the back....and a heavy wheel at that....give u a little more momentum aswell

 

Yeah, but that additional momentum starts off as additional inertia.
