Drag radials are awesome for AT equipped cars, but not that great on MT ones. Drag radials have a tougher time dealing with the shock that a MT car can produce during a hard launch. It takes lots of practice.

What rear tire pressure you running?
Stock suspension/shocks? Do you have a good suspension setup to load the rear at launch?

I was running around 18 psi on drag radials. All stock suspension. The next best thing I'm working on are some rear suspension pieces to aid in launching and cut down on wheel hop.

With such trap the car should easily be good for mid 11's. more practice would get you there

About 400 whp. I didn't try running the Z34 TT at that low a boost since I was running high octane fuel.
