Lost control at the track hit the wall
Ok so I i went down the 1/8 mile track i launched at 7.5k on the 2 step making 9lbs of boost very nicely immediately into 2nd gear at 9k into 3rdat around 8.75k or so at this point the car is pullin super hard n starting to boost pretty hard at around 5.5k Rpms the car started boostin so hard that it broke the tires loose n kicked the *** end out and I hit the wall doing 90 mph it's not the first time it's gotten squirrely towards the end of the gears when it's starting to hit full boost what can I do to control this Im runnin m/t 26x10.5x16 drag street radials btw

Any number of things. Although it seems very odd that you're breaking traction in a higher gear leading to a wreck but not mentioning losing it in a lower gear. It sounds like you hit a slick spot.
driver mod
alignment
race stability management
ECU with boost by gear
wing/diffuser
etc.
The long of the short is you either need to be able to control it, or stop it from happening. Anything that effects either of those two will help.
