Well I will take a WAG that your at your chassis setup's limit running N/A and then your beyond the tire and chassis's limit when your spraying it. Even a small shot at the hit is going to make the converter stall higher from the added torque. So your probably slipping the tires right at the hit and then spinning them when you add more nitrous 0.9 seconds into your run as you claim.

Some video would help us help you. Like I've got posted a couple threads down in this forum. You say your running cal tracs and S10 springs. What kind of suspension system do you have in the front of the truck? What kind of static weight distribution does your truck have? What are you using for shocks? Give us some more info and we can help.

Does it transfer any weight to the rear during the launch or does the front end just stay down? Also, what's the first gear ration on the 700R4?
