What kind of weight? I figured mine problem out after many, many times watching and hearing it launch on vid. My heavy pig bogs the engine down as it starts lifting the front wheel and falls on it's face then picks back up as the rear unloads and spins the tires.

I'm thinking either mine needs to go on a small diet or take the launch from 6k to 7k or maybe set the suspension up to allow a little bit of spin.

After talking to a buddie of mine that races,he said i was spinning off the line eventhough it didn't feel like it.So i am going to go lower on my tire pressure(down to 15 psi)and see how that works.Should work considering there are cars running 7 sec 1/4's with these tires.
