Lol - sorry to hear LP...I am lucky to be around good fuel. It would be better if E85 was readily available. But as this car is staying stock - it doesn't affect me these days...

is your turbo s stock? he also has a turbo s with pure turbo upgrade that thing is fast... i saw the video of the gt63 run didnt see the time slips tho. i havent seen anybody online running those numbers online and the m5c always comming ontop.

My car is bone stock. Again - we shared the same Tuner (Marco tuned my GTR) - and no stock GT63S has run a 10.7 - forget a 10.5. F90 CE’s beat the GT63S - and they run 10.9’s (hopefully to be 10.8’s lol).

I have seen previously mentioned on the forum: first "to do" is to reduce intake restriction by removing the carbon filters from the air boxes (they sit on top of the regular air filters). I believe the filters are on all north American vehicles due to California vapour regulations...

Excellent. Thanks for the tip. I'll remove them this week.

I read something somewhere about being able to adjust the RPM's for launch but I can't find it now.

You used to be able to adjust RPMs during launch but that's no longer a thing. It was set using the cruise control rocker on the steering wheel.

PS: I'd love to be wrong on this one, anyone?

How do these tickets make sense from today at Cayuga. Was very busy only got 3 runs in. I did 10.95 at 125. But my 11.33 trapped 129
I wonder if I let off early?

Big difference in ET is due to your 60 ft. Were you spinning on launch on your 11.3? Much worse 60 ft on that run.

What are you guys running the car in for these good times? 4WD or MDM 4WD sport?

Suspension sport? Or comfort?

I'm assuming launch control. Do you let it rev to 3k? Or let it go early?

MPH isn’t the key driver in your ET. Roughly speaking your 60 ft will have 3x impact on ET. So for every 0.1 improvement in 60 ft you will see 0.3 improvement in ET.

I’m guessing you spun on your 11.3 and that caused the higher 60
Ft and higher trap.

So sometimes when you spin you may get a lower time but higher trap?

Could be a lot of things... As pointed out, spinning will slightly increase mph....you probably launched at higher boost that caused the spin that led to more boost under the curve...more mph...

Also , different lanes can result in slightly different numbers...

Or you could have gotten a bit of timing retard in the lower mph run due to heat, etc...

Looks like you picked up the mph gain in the back half.....makes me think timing retard or lane issue since the 1/8mph is similar...

Good runs. Congrats...

Thank you. Kinda makes sense, my 10.9 run was my last run and it was warm outside yesterday
