Brian, you need to fine tune your tire pressure first of all , your not transferring weight 'cuz you lack traction .... too much spinnage. Tires need to wrinkle a bit. A longer drawbar may help. I never pulled mine with a wide front, I went right to a narrow front, and stripping off weight where ever I could, seldom add weight to the front, depends on the track.
What gear were you pulling in in the video? 1st? I noticed the power director shift, I think you would have pulled better leaving it in hi range . I pull in 2nd low, , several pulls at 5500 on a good power-stealing track , I should have tried hi 1st. I might have done better. Traction was not an issue, nor was power.... tire pressure, and weight / balance were my challenges. This was a short season of pulling this year for me and made a lot of changes so there were things to sort out. Thats the bad of pulling, you can't try to catch the leader on the next lap.
PS it is still for sale at $4500. usd, I have had some interest, but no one has committed. I would prefer to not sell it locally, I wouldn't want to pull against it.
