I just can't seem to "roll into it" ever since getting my FTI 3200. I've tried and tried, but my engine/rpms act like I've basically floored the gas and I'm running wide open.

When I was running the stock converter, that's how I always launched (rolling into the gas). That method worked great for getting the tires to hook, especially when I was still running the stock tires. Some of my best 60' were with a gentle roll into the gas.

With the converter, I still roll into the gas to launch (from idle). But as mentioned, my car just screams off the line and some times the tires hook and sometimes I just light up them up.
But I'm also running 20" NT555Rs with little sidewall. A better drag radial may solve my problem.
