What are your clutch settings? I'm assuming the engine (LSN) is tuned right. Anyway like Baxter mentioned, check if the clutch slips. A way to do this is to LOOSEN the clutch pre-tension nut 1/4 turn at a time till you get the best launch out of the corners and from standstill. Once your engine bogs down during clutch engagement, then you know that the performance is dropping. Tighten it back again.
Thanks D. I'll give it a shot this Sat.
