Default Went to the half mile...

Hi guys

Want to share some things that happened there to hear input from the forum...

Belive it or not the event sucked because the track measuring devices never worked wtfk!!!
So the event turned out , a match shoot out, I was on my isf w headders , joe z intake tube ,afe wet drop in, and secondary cats removed, also ran w 100oct ,no water on ww,spare tools etc out,, track cont. off, sport applied, manual.My first time at the track w the F.

Got to say love my F at the track, so easy to drive, no room for error, feels very safe.

1st match vs 2.5 turbo supra (no 2jz) beat him , he caught me after the 1/2 mile sign...
1500rpm launch felt great little to nothing wheel speen , felt very fast at the hole shot.

2nd match vs bmw m5 w lots of bolt ons, is the model before current model
1700rpm launch , felt good not much wheel spin felted, won by 2 or 3 cars lenth, when heading back the bmw ask me to roll back , beacuse he didnt got the car in m mode, so we rolled from 50mph about 130mph he starts to pull away , ending in the f runig on the rear bumper...
he was fast he told me he did 143 or 147 dont recall on the last one

3rd and 4th , raced my friends gt3, this time I pulled at 2000rpm , wheel speed was felted and the traction control wich was off turned on by it self and i felted the car ran slower for a while and the porsche jumped 2 car lenght ahead...headding back raced like the bmw and I ran all the way on his door very close
2nd race out of the hole was the same, spun the wheels a lot and cost me the race ,Again the 2000rpm launch and the tcs was felt strong,An the traction control was felt to make the car slower

sweet spot to the hole shot ?how you do it(rpm) ? practice etc!!!
also how do you shift ? before the beep, in the beep, alittle bit after the beep?

Do the pedal dance to turn the traction control all the way off. Shift when u hear the beep.

Hold the button a few seconds to turn the nannies completely off. They won't come back on. Shift after the beep.

Easiest way I found is to just get a photo bucket account. After you put the pics on there you can just copy and paste the link right into your comment block.

93 is all you need. 100 octane is just a waste of $$$.
