Looks like your having an awesome time on your Cannonball run from your IG posts.
Cheers.

Cannonball was absolutely incredible. The amount of luxury, the beautiful hotels and so much was included. It was just incredible. Was composed of a lot of veterans of gumball 3000 and goldrush rally. And some from Corsa America Rally. Organizers deliberately kept it small to about 40 cars. It was very intimate and everybody got to know everybody really well.
Thanks for sharing. You look so relaxed. Once you beat these cars are you slowing down or are you pushing all the way to the finish? Also is that the LC that hesitates right in the beginning getting traction or are you shifting into second that fast?
Also very surprised the GTR's that did beat you it was at the end and not very quick off the start. They do not start all that fast for having a great 0-60.

There's always some first timers out there.
I do it mostly on feel. I know at what point I can shift and achieve maximum acceleration. On most cars it's at redline...but this car has such a small fuel system that I'm out of fuel pretty quickly so I use my massive torque to my advantage and short shift the higher gears. I'm literally shifting from 5th to 6th at something really low like 5,000 rpm.

There is some wheel spin for sure the surface is bad. And that is what you are hearing. I'm probably in first gear for at least one second.
For the modded GTR's, they have a lot of power and the surface is terrible. They have the engine in the front not the rear like the 911. So even with slicks there is no way on this bad surface anything is going to beat a 911. For better track-prepped surfaces of course a GTR on slicks will hook and go.
Thx brotha.
Nice hanging out bro. Can't wait for you to smash me at the next event! Best of luck with getting your beast dialed in.
Yup you got me fair and square brother. You learn from your mistakes. And that taught me never to sleep on another PDK Turbo ever again!
