That would be a good idea and hopefully if he does start to spin and not stay straight you just slingshot out in front quickly. Remember, keep it in S mode but click it down to 2nd gear to start and it will shift from there.

OP good luck and please record it, if possible

This has all the makings of an ugly ending. Bail out now before this kid hurts himself or worse, someone else.

I ran a New GT500 with my old car (335i) we were pretty Dead even 40-120mph - he slowly pulled 1 CL on me till 150 . All he had was a axle-back exhaust. My car was HEAVILY modded.

You sure you ran a 2013 GT500? No way a modified 335 would hang up to 120. I have a 2013 GT500 and it's a monster. The 13's hook up a lot better than the old ones.

Started in second gear. Last run I turned traction control off, seemed to fair a little bit better. Most of the runs were between 50-60mph, I may have hung for a little longer from a 20mph roll. Dont mind the cars on the highway it was dumb for sure.
