1st Run: From 60 both in 3rd gear, he managed to get the jump for a split second (no more than 1ft ahead), his 3rd gear ended first allowing me to pull ahead by about 1/2 fender, being that I was getting to the top of 3rd, then I dropped it to 4th. Being that he was already in 4th, he barely caught up and by that point, I started to very slowly walk him and would say I managed to get him by 1/2 car before we both had to slam on our brakes. One small problem... he forgot to turn off his DSC and put it in Power/Sport mode (or whatever it's called). 2nd Run starting in the same gear yielded a lot closer results. I noticed that this time around, his car lunged forward a lot quicker and managed to stay with me the entire time. Again, because his gears are shorter, I would say that towards the top of 4th I started slowly pulling away. Both times I was shifting around 6-6500. Needless to say, if his car was 3400lbs instead of 4200, I would have lost, likewise, I feel that if I just had 4.10 gears, it would have probably been over a lot sooner. Atleast I know what my next mod will probably be. ;o) Also for those curious, since getting my car back up and running, I haven't tested for boost leaks but on a loner run, I noticed I was leveled at 14psi. He is completely stock (minus a short shifter). Mods are in my profile.
