Happy Easter everyone
I have my car in Detroit right now waiting for the snow to recede up north before I take it back home. I just don't feel very comfortable around here to get it up near red line in 4th gear, 7500 is close to 135 and 8k is 140+ with my gearing/ tires. 120 is no problem, we'll see maybe. It's not a huge priority for me right now.

We'll be working refining the driveline a bit and swapping in my Feal refreshed Ohlins with some tweaks on the front suspension bits and alignment. Also working on the launch, it's feeling pretty good and hooks up very well with my big Conti's which aren't very sticky.

I did find an issue that I think was caused from my battery going dead while I was away from the car for 2 weeks. When I made those video clips the other night, I was not at full power. I re-set the ECU and voila full power back, after that we were working on the launches and that video on Friday. I ran a couple logs running through gears from a 20-30 roll and from the not so accurate AP elapsed time 50-100 looks like around 4+ seconds. Take that with a grain of salt because I don't think the time is accurate!
