Need advice on rear suspension for drag racing
I have a mickey t compound 1 on the back. Im 235 and with the tire psi at 25 it grabs but doesnt squat. I read brocks info on suspension setup. With both rear adjustments stiff the tire tends to breaks lose unless on a very good surface and hot. With the compression out some the bike would squat but raise up as soon as i gave it the gas. It wheeled to easy this way. I know alot of you fellas have been racing for sometime. Any help would be appreciated.

I go all the way loose on the compression and all the way tight on the rebound.
My bike squats and stays squatted till I'm out of the hole.
This first pic shows how high my tail sits just sitting on it.
This second pic shows how much it squats on the launch.
