I had him all the way down the quarter by half a car till the end he started gaining and reeling me in...Keep in mind I ran a 10.98 he ran an 11.0X I think only 3/10's of a second but his trap was 130...I only managed a 127 I think it was. With a tune that thing will easily trap above 130 consistently. The weight plays a big factor as well. My pig is just too heavy..

The E63 (Fr33kn63) was not running right on it's new tune. Having some shifting problems, IIRC. I think he was mid 12's all day. That same car ran an 11.99 on it's RENNtech tune.

I'll let him chime in about the details.
