They are recomending very loose converters even for PD blower cars and launching in second gear.

Traction is for certain a major factor. On a well prepped track with 17 x 10s" MTDRs we can leave, in first gear, at 1,500 with 1.35 60s. Fair prep we leave at 800-1,000 rpm and 60s go to 1.40s.

I'd like to hear from the Fast guys as to how they are setting up converters / launching full weight cars?
I’m full weight, stock converter, and leave in second gear. Traction is an issue with 17’s so I’ve just upgraded to 15’s and need to get back to the track. Believe the fastest Gen6 PD car (@ZL1Atlanta on this board) is also stock converter & leaving in second gear banging down 8.20@173…
