I kept the car in 3rd around 50mph and pinned it and the car just kept climbing in revs and speed and just planted itself. The exit out of the turn onto the Cross Island was just amazing since you get to go under an overpass mid-turn. The car was singing. I'm getting used to the raspy sound (its a big departure from the roar of my LS powered G8 GT.)
Hah, I'm from LI and know that turn. Great idea, I'll have to try it out too when I go visit family.
