In reply to wvumtnbkr :

I think its seal or at least sealed well enough. Before I would clean the plugs, use ether to get a quick start then drive, it would not restart on properly without re-cleaning the plugs. I've started it 6 or 8 times now so it SEEM ok.

I went in to the log from the burnout and added a virtual channel for the rear wheel speed (I don't have the sensor working but I do have rpm and I know it was 1st gear) and then made a plot with interesting stuff on it. It looks like the tire came loose at about 3700rpm and 88kPa. DM6 says its making 260hp/360ft-lb at that point. That means 1st gear should be fine as long as I keep the engine below 2500rpm. Then if I'm doing the math right, 2nd gear should hold about 523ft-lb which should be 4 ft-lbs more than the engine can make.
