2.4 isn't a good 60'. Try varying your RPMs but I think 2500 is a little low to be launching. As for the air pressure, I'd try to get consistant first then start tinkering with all your settings. Otherwise you'll be introducing too many variables into the equation at the same time.

I don't know if you can get in the 15's, just keep practicing on that launch and get it to where it won't bog... I usually launch at 32-3500 rpms and you might get it there... 3/10 of a seconds isn't that easy to accomplish though...

But, I can now lauch at like 2200 and not bog down at all (in fact I spin)... Just gotta have the right power ratio
