Man you better be careful with your weights. Did you weigh your car with the competition setup with you in it at 3,775? That seems awfully heavy. Mine was only 3,540 but I'm 6MT and I weigh 50 lbs less than you. I did also have lighter wheels than stock but wider tires.

At 3,775 and 326 whp then factoring in +.3 for tires and -.3 for DCT gearbox you are right at 12.080. At 3750 you'd be underweight, not a lot of wiggle room especially if you are factoring in a full tank of gas at 3775. You can easily use a 1/4 to a 1/3 tank of gas in a TT session. You have about 25 pounds of wiggle room, gas is about 6 lbs a gallon so that's 4 gallons you can burn which is about 1/4 to 1/3 a tank.
