20,
factory tip was 4.5 so i expect x50 tip maybe 4.4.
on tips: i still maintain on my mountain hillclimbs i am faster at my braking points in a tip, but maybe i was younger and pushed harder then as well [only 2 years ago], vs a stick TT. in which i had no short shift kit. the other fun thing with tips is you can just stomp on it at red lights, so actual 0-60 is much faster than stick if you love your clutch like i do.
in a gt2 with a shorter, smoother gearbox than stock TT, i can keep the car as smooth and balanced as with a tip.
the rlist boys who fancy themselves racers say this tip advantage would never exist at their advanced skill level but does anyone else have roads where they have directly compared their tip times and speeds to stick??
