bone stock and/or a tuned with basic mods CAI exhaust - Drive w/ tc off gives you better results - dont base your self by sport mode having higher RPMs. I thought the same but when I tested Drive vs Sport mode tc off - same day same track w/ 20 mins in between (3times each mode) Drive w/ tc off was 2 tenth faster in the 1/8 mile.

At the same track (edinburg) I ran a 13.2 bone stock on my GXP. I cant wait till patrick gets a hold of it and tunes it to see what it will run. Plus my headers and CAI just came in so this should be a little interesting...

When u just move it over to the right it is in sports mode. If u move it to the right n tap it up or down that's manual mode. I would just use sport mode when ur at the track. Just move it to the right and don't tap it up or down. That will leave it in sport mode where it shifts for u.

My fastest times have come on regular Drive T/C off and power braked and launched at 1300rpms. As for me I think its about 2 tenths faster on regular Drive than Sportsmode. It feels stronger because the RPMs are higher but it doesn't do anything if you are stock or has minor mods.
Drop your tire pressure to about 28psi (rear tires only) - regular Drive T/C off & launch at around 1200-1300 rpms - 1/4 tank of gas only

I think you'll be amazed how much power you pick up with a tune.
