Default Re: At 4000 rpm in second before she hooks up?

I could spin tires thru 3rd gear if I tried when I was at 500 rwhp N/A. And at the drag strip I had to modulate power. Mash the gas and you get 2.2 + 60 fts, modulate and you get 1.8 60 fts no problem. When I leave a light I actually kinda bog it, so that I dont spin and I beat most people out of the hole. Modulate and I dont power shift the 1-2. 2nd gear Ill modulate until above 4k, then I m hammering it thru third gear.
Also, the warmer it is, the better your tires will stick, get some stickier tires, ditch the runflats. Also, check your airpressure. I run 30lbs cold in rear on the street. At drag strip I run 25lbs hot.
