I can get my car to hook up off the line. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions. All I get is big time wheel hop. my 1/4 mile times suck ass because of it.

Can you post one of your timeslips so we can see the results?

Assuming you are FWD. Do NOT dump the clutch. Slip it nearly all thru 1st gear, get into 2nd and hope your tires are gonna stick. Are you using street tires? If so, try drag radials on the front?

when i used to launch my FWD, i would only take it up to 3k rpms and ease the clutch out. keep adding gas to keep the turbo spooled and when you feel the tires slip or start to hop, a quick push on the clutch will stop it. keep right between where the clutch grabs and is not fully engaged.

i used to practice this at almost every light til i had it down pat.
