For someone who doesnt get good traction, how much gas should I have in the tank?

[nikon]

well the best run I make I had 1/2 tank of gas and stalled to 2000rpms ...actually hooked... Ican stall to 2500 but obviously it just spins....should I try stallhg higher eith a full tank of gas or what???

Weird, last time at the track I dead hooked at 2500 and got a 2.0 '60. Must be track preparation I guess. If you added more gas it might offset the benefit of stalling higher though. What do your tires look like? If you have the stock Goodyears, they suck, plus if they don't have a lot of tread that makes it just that much worse.

got some BFG G-Force KDWS, they're not bad, and ya they didnt have too much tread last time I raced, now I got the old front tires in the back and bought some new tires for the front....I think Im just gonna break down and buy some nitto drags, with some scratched up salad shooters

Good, anything is gonna be better than your stock tires with worn tread. From what I've heard, BFGs are good for track performance, but might not last as long as Bridgestone and some other brands. You might want to do a search in suspension, I had a tire post a while back and Dominic gave me some good advice.
