That is truly impressive.

I will second the notion of waiting to get some cooler air and removing the TM and seeing what it'll do.

A quick question, did e-town give you any grief about not having a cage? Technically it's box stock and shouldn't need one right?

YES!! Those things have pure stock 10s written all over them. Someone has to be able to pull the TM out already!! With it in, sticky tires might actually be hurting you more.

Have you ever run it at Atco yet?? Which (rear) tires on this run, Hoosiers? Kumhos? A6s? V700/710s?

Thanks, Scott.

BTW, that is one sick ride you're rolling in there. Love the color, and the SSRs look damn fine on FDs. Hell, even though you might get people dissing the turndown exhaust tips, I personally think it looks wicked and different.
Must be nice to run 10s, change wheels & tires and go kick azz on road courses/autocrosses.

George,

Seems like the weather and a little better 60' gained you 30-40 hp. I third the wait for better air and take it to Atco. Oh and a little better DR.

Yeah that's the main hinderance on these cars, a sticky tire actually makes it worse but there are ways of avoiding it/driving around some of it supposedly. My C6 auto falls on it's face when I nail it, off the line and during shifts, can't wait for the A6 transmission tuning to be doped out.
Was the barometer really that low or is that just what the time slip said (those are rarely accurate for weather specs, at least I know at Atco they're not), I've been seeing around 29.90-30.00 for the area this week.
Nice pass either way dude.
