Right now I'm running a K and N SRI, catless dp, and a trifecta tune and from 30 to 60 I can't get traction just flooring it. I've tried different tires and I still break loose at 40. Is this just something that we all have to deal with or is there a fix? It kind of interferes with roll racing somewhat.

 

I'll tell you a secret...





That pedal on the right... it has more than two positions... not many people know that so keep it quiet...



otherwise welcome to making horsepower... put a set of sticky tires on the car and start playing with the suspension...

You really can't just floor these cars, they make too much power too quickly to do that, you gotta roll into the throttle

 

Buy my radials

 

Drag Slicks for a DD

 

Don't press the gas all the way down, as Tommy said, roll into it.

 

you sure you are spinning and not a slipping clutch?

 

no clutch slip with Trifecta lol jk

 

I do roll into the throttle but if you could get that big torque hit to bite wouldn't it take off alot better. the tires squeel so its definately spinning.

 

bad driver mod 2.0 upgrade

 

some spin is okay. learn to pedal it. below is a 400+whp cobalt having no problem in second gear

this. Believe me it is, I still get way too excited at autox's and such and don't roll the gas on right :/

 

only autox i've done was on such a shitty surface that my stock car would blow the tires off from a 2400rpm hit in 2nd...

 

He was having PLENTY of problems with 2nd gear. Did you actually watch that video?

 

did you see how quickly he got through the gear pedaling it? he didn't leave it spinning on the limiter like a bunch of people i have seen on here

 

Lol

 

 

Shifting while your spinning messes up the clutch...

 

umm... how...

 

Actually it messes up the synchros in the tranny.

 

so does shifting

 

like they said, dont put ur peddle to the floor. lol plus try conti extreme contact summer dw 235s, it fixed that spinning problem for the most part for me. but as they wear, ull spin again. thats alot of power, we all sping through second for the most part

 

i went with a wider tire in the front and i just barley spun in 2nd gear

 

I have 255 nt555's up front. They barely spin on a warm day. Warmest day so far was 60. I bet in 80+ degrees in summer I will barely spin. Love these tires.
