> i don’t think laura was having a to big of a deal with traction. i watched a few of her races from the starting line and it was not really spinning that much. dan had no traction issues at all, he just kind of squated and went. I would ride the clutch out, feather the gas and I would come out sideways every time. :dunno: Like spangler said I think my biggest problem is the rear not squatting.

> i dunno, I think the turbo might be on its last leg… sitting in the line it would just start puffing smoke. It was bad, then it was fine… now it seems to be bad again. not sure though, starboy is going to give me his old one so I am going to slap that on and see if it wakes the car up again. Jay burnt one up running 14psi, and i think i might have done the same thing. oh well

that blows but laura has traction issues, you may not see it but she sure does… drive that car and youll see it has issues. its ok tho in time she should see 12s with a few tibets

yea your suspension could be too stiff and if your turbo is shot step up if you can afford to now
