Also let me say that nlowell's car is fricking fast. Like ridiculously fast. His car is incredible.

By the way, as for the 1/4 mile trip, lets just say it didn't go so well... I was only able to get one run it since I got there later than anticipated and I had a terrible launch. I spun tires down half the track lol. Anyway I'm going to practice launching this week, so I'm prepared and as long as weather is permitting I'm going to run again this weekend. I will also get there when they open so I will be able to get at least four or five runs in as well.

I must be a terrible driver. I hit like high 6s on 0-60s lol. No FI yet though, better keep practicing.

Finally got back from Toronto and got some of that corn juice! On the way back, the gas light turned on when my GPS says I have 50 more miles to go, which was perfect.

Arrived to the gas station down the block from my house with my gas meter well below the E. Today will be a fun day.


On a side note, it seemed like my OFT real time displays are missing the labels? I tried updating it to the template that's on the OFT website, but that didn't work.

Difference between mid 6s to high 6s (and even very low 7's) can be launch. You have to be willing to make some sacrifices with your clutch and tires.

For this reason, 0-60 doesn't really mean much as a stat. In the real world most people won't abuse their cars to scrub off an extra few tenths. Rolling starts (like 5-60, 10-70), passing stats (like 30-60, 50-70, or 60-90), and of course quarter mile ET and especially MPH reflect both day to day and relevant track stats best.

All I know is that my lap times and autocross times are faster with the ESC by an amount that outweighs the amount I paid -- so I'm happy.
