Just for clarification; how was the launch traction on the PSS's? I'm about to buy a set, and just wanted to clarify your view. Thanks.

e.r.p. triple carbon clutch.
i am going to have to do the 60-130 again. i didnt meet the official requirements to be added to the list.
thats ok though, im positive i'll be quicker. solo run with just race gas in the car, and a less humid and hot day will get me where i want to be with these turbos. this time i will have videos as well (just like my 996).

i didnt do this run on pss's. i did it on toyo r888s. i didnt do it from a dig, it was a rolling 60-130. is it quicker from a dig ???
these toyos can not be launched at this power level. they do not slip.
i did a few launches on my pss's and it was GREAT. the rear tires spin just a little bit (which is what you want),
remember, you want to launch with sport mode ON, stiff suspension OFF. normal mode for suspension.
i run 33 psi up front, 37 at the rear.
once im out of SECOND gear, i put the suspension back to sport (stiff).

What requirement did you fail to meet to make the 60-130 list? Decline of the road too great?
Overall, very impressive run. The APR tune (I had one) is very good for a simple reflash. It is extremely aggressive, but on the race fuel that really doesn't matter. Well done.

What's the advantage of launching with sport/stiff suspension off? That answer probably answers the next question, but why go back to sport/stiff coming out of 2nd gear?

because if the rear is too stiff, the car will bog instead of squat.
sport on (for better throttle response),
suspension SOFT so the car can squat and sling shot forward.
i put it back on in 3rd because its not making enough power to squat in 3rd.

This would apply to launch control starts too I assume. The manual just says go to Sport Plus--nothing about disengaging sport/stiff suspension.
