John's car was on factory Porsche Race Start at factory boost levels that day. His car simply reacts differently than yours or others for his setup. Every car and driver are different. Adjustable launch control can be dialed in for optimized acceleration of each individual's car off of Race Start.

He has cat-like reflexes and finesse too. Proven when he would jump into any car. One of the many variables. He must have eaten but it wasn't a McGriddle like myself and some of us, it was Wheaties!

Please add me to the McGriddle side. Thank you( FYI if thing don't go my way at redlist.....
Well the factory boost level as opposed to an elevated boost level which can result from a tune worked perfectly with his P Zeros. I Brice my car was launching at full boost which the PSS's could not handle. I regret not having hands set of Mickey Thompsons on the rear for that event.

Agreed, some fine tuning of your boost pressure at launch, which only the Cobb Accessport can do, with or without slicks would definitely increase your 60' times. We will be in the NYC and Baltimore area visiting dealers next week if you'd like a personal demonstration of how this works.

Instead of repeating how sh*tty of a time he is having launching his car, maybe he can do something about it

Are you sure you are running factory boost pressure at launch? I honestly don't know the answer but you may have boost dialed up on your current tune, which is causing you wheelspin.

I am calling it right now that by June 2016 he will have a Cobb tuner.

I am quite happy with my GIAC Stage 2+ tune. OEM smoothness (I DD the car sometimes) and the Champion warranty are very important to me.
But definitely would need Mickeys to have the best launch due to all the power at launch. I am sure I could get the launch tweaked if I want to.

That goes for everyone else as well. Cobb has and will always offer a 30day return policy on all of our products.
Thanks again to everyone else for all of your kind words!

HAHAHAHAHAHA
I have cat like reflexes
Lowered the tire pressure, did some burnouts and threatened the Pirelli's that if they didn't hook up I would replace them
