You have a well sorted car!

Have you ran times on pump gas? Just wondering how much affect that has.

I was fiddling with all of the buttons and accidentally left the suspension setting in track. Too firm. When I launched it, it wasn't letting the weight transfer to the back and I killed the 60. Saw a 2.3 60' on the board and just let go.

God - memories of rental after rental trying to get into the 11's in my stock E55. Good ole' days.

Actually ran a 10.275 @ 135.21 on Wednesday. Will start a new thread for the OG crowd.
