I had no problems selecting gears throughout the run? Sucks to hear about that problem, I haven't experienced that though.
Wilch: I know what you mean, I read that too, so I played around with it myseld. In the end, the bigger burnout I did, the better 60ft I was getting. Thats the thing, the Falken Ziex's have a very very high temperature rating as to when they become sticky, and the big burnouts got them there I tried a little first gear burnout on my first run and it spun a lot off the line...
edit: I got a best of 2.100 60ft time.... not too great but not too shitty either
