Thanks everyone

I actually had some probs hooking even with the DR's. I heated them up well but if I wasn't in the groove I would annihilate them on the launch. I'm not really good at slipping the clutch I guess lol. It seemed like the car would blow the tires off or bog..sometimes even at a high rpm launch. Could the Torque Management be shutting me down when I'm hooking and make the engine bog?

I let another guy make a pass in the car. This was his first time in a C5 and he ran a 12.5 first pass and an 11.96 on the second. His second pass was slightly better than my best pass. I think the car has more potential but I'm happy....for now.
