Jim,

Watching it in slow-mo, This is what I see:

The tire gets 3 full rotations by the time it gets to where your front tire starts. And it starts to spin before your front end rises at all.

You really arent getting much front lift. Now we all know front lift doesn't need to be there if your dead hooking. But your not right now. Try loosening the front shocks up some.

There is no sepperation or really any squat in your rear. So I'm guessing you have about 100% antisquat. After loosening the front and trying that, try raising your ICG by moving the ladder bars up one hole. If it gets worse move them down 2 (one down from where they are now). See what that does.

But I think the first step would be to get that front moving up.
