how much glue are you using?

For Outlaw we can only glue to the tree, from there it is clean. Basically all I have been trying.

sorry, i do not know where that =11pt came from.lol

have your tires been trued? you may want to try a different compound tire depending on the tracks surface. you might try a different gear ratio like 14/52 or 15/52. glueing a track can be a little tricky, I've had great success glueing the tires and pushing the car till the rear wheels are at the tree then I repeat this 3 times then a final coat of glue on the tires and then holding the rear tires off the track till you have made the stageing lights light up then set it down and gently push down on the rear of the car to seat it and you are ready to go. I should have asked you if there is anyone else at your track running the similar setup as you and if they are running well on that track under the same conditions as you. If others can do it then so can you. GOOD LUCK

not too hard, had this chassis 20 years...

HI Macman,
that looks like a DRS chassis, I have got 3 of the same type chassis that I run s16d motors in and one of them is a corvette funny car. for a year i ran it in brackets and it always ran 10.05-10.10 then i added .05 tubing to stiffen up the rear wheelie bars and rebuilt the motor(blueprinted it) put new .300 wide tires on it just hoping to get into the .9's and when it ran .920 on a new motor i was pleasantly surprised and after 3 more passes it finally setttled in at .905 i can only imagine what your Gr.20 might do, maybe mid .7's.
i just built a MM/PS with a quad Gr20 weighing in at 121 grams, the next time i go to the track will be the end of this month, i hope it runs in the high 7's to low 8's. time will tell..
