(jk, go back to the sofa)

That's true... you don't want to flaunt it too much. Otherwise I'm sure on my next trip out to AZ I'll see a certain silver TT there being upgraded MORE

Robert, a big thanks to you and Matt. With your suspension setup and his LSD, I have never had a car that puts down big power so easily. Actually, the quarter mile time and speed isnt that impressive with your setup. I think a trained monkey, or even TopGun for that matter, could have run those times

Thanks again!

Here is the external video of the 152.7 run. The quality isnt great and my kids forgot to capture the time on the board. I guess good help is hard to find. I am working on the in car video as well and EVOMS is doing a comiplation of both with some stills. The car launches hard and pulls up the front end a bit

Unfortunately, I am bumping the rev limiter at the line. After breaking a few lifters running 8K, we decided to keep it at 7400 max. With my DR of 305/35/18 which is 26.2 inches tall, I can only get a max of 152-153 mph in 4th gear. I think the car has a bit more in it, but the 4-5 shift at redline is a problem...
