Default New RCF owner from Pittsburgh

As you can see from the 2nd pic, the car has already visited the drag strip to be broken in
I love this amazing machine and am looking forward to supercharging it soon with the help of RR-Racing.

Started with a 15.6sec quarter mile run and finished with 12.9sec. Hard to figure out launching without a clutch or launch control function

my best run was when the temps dropped down to 70° that evening. What did you use as far as your driver settings and tire pressure along with launching?
I was at 26psi in front and 24 in rear along with sport+ and TC off in manual mode
