Test N tune tech is relaxed. That's why local street racing is almost non existant right now. This area was very very active 2 years ago.

Tucking the 315/60 requires more modifications of the wheel well and looks too "race car" IMO.

Beautiful runs. Can't wait to go turbo with my car over winter.

I wish our TT was as relaxed as yours. Bottom 9s with no cage? If we go 11.40s without a roll bar more than once or twice you're kicked out.

They used to be that way. Then the track was sold and completely rennovated. Tech was still tough when they opened up the doors again but thats abou when the economy tanked and they had no car count which equals no money. That's when they started making the push to get the street racers off the street and it has worked out perfectly. There is now almost no street racing in the Palm Beach County area.

Yeah, they look good but they cause me to have to pedal the car or else it will go up on the bumper. I hope the new gears settle her down a little. I know that the Th350's aggresive first gear isn't helping matters either. I really need a Glide. It's next on the list.

Here's my timeslip. You're definitely coming out of the hole much better than me. Can't wait for the spring to fix the problem with the 2-step.

Are you ramping in boost? Or are you pedaling? Or are you laggy? That 1/8 mile looks real soft everywhere. Second half looks real strong!

I have my boost controller set to ramp up on the drag radials. However I never reach my target launch boost number of 8PSI. The reason is that I don't build enough boost with the transbrake and foot braking alone. I need the 2-step to do that consistantly. I have the old "I don't want to be on the bumper" fear thing going also.

Unfortunately I didn't data log this run but I'm pretty sure I came out on pretty much zero boost or close to it. With being twin turbo'd lag is minimal but there is some.

You wont believe the difference the 2 step will make. I'm launching right about 8 psi with the 2 step popping at 3600 rpm. Once I let go of the tbrake the car flashes to about 4500-5K really fast.

He drives it there and every where else too. He puts Sunoco Maximal in at the track.
