Just got my traction control system from JMB today. I haven't gotten to install it yet but should get to it by Saturday. I hope it helps even a little bit. Right now I spin really really bad out of the hole. I'll give it a try when it's on and let everyone know how it works.

I got my JMB traction system on last night. It took me about an hour, but I did clean the back side of the wheels and the calipers while the tires where off.
I took it out and did a couple of launches and could tell some difference. It didn't spin as bad in 1st and only a little in 2nd. It was spinning so bad I was shifting to 2nd practically before I started to move then would spin a little in 3rd. No 3rd gear rubber now. I know it helped some. I will know more when I can get it to the track. I hope this info. helps.

PS I don't want to add a water bag to the beg for traction due to the extra weight it will add.

Pointless as the extra weight will kill you on the big end.

When I ran with a full tank of gas versus 1/8 tank I lost atleast a .10-.15 in the 1/4, and my 60' times were no better.

I don't want to add weight. I wasn't sure if it would help out of the hole or not, but I knew it would hurt at the finish line.

I get all kinds of hook up. my 1000lbs topper gives me plenty of traction. wears on the brakes though. i keep front pads in bulk.

Me too. Best times were with quarter tank as well.
