mine used to do that with my old auto, easiest thing, tighten up the handbrake, jam it with sum tech screws so it just drops when u let go and jam on ur brakes something shocking push ur seat right forward.

FYI my 9.95 was 1.58, but had a little more mph.

Yea 35/40 , converters good it just needs a tune from what Bretto told Me . Anyone know if its true that TUFFSS3 blew the engine after the 8.73 pass ?? Heard it off some **** at Maccas at the end of the night .

im hopefully gonna give the 9 sec pass with a 35/40 a shot mines .82 too. ps. at heathcote mine ran a 1.51 60' on 7psi launch, lifted the wheel a tiny bit. so hopefully a bigge tyre, calder and more boost off the line will get me a decent launch. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
