I'll get pics of the slips up tonight after I get off. This is only the 3rd time I've ever been on a track in a car, so launching definitely isn't my strong point. I tried to launch about 2800 to see if I could improve my 60's. It would spin just a little make me think I'm good then boost comes on and wheel hop makes me had to get off it.
At the time I was on/off. I did for some runs others not so much. In other words, when done correctly on these cars with the fast spooling kits out, powershifting is not required. Nor would I recommend it after grenading a transmisison on a 2-3 shift.
Come on man, not everyone is gonna hit 11s with that horsepower. You just happen to be one of the exceptions. You already know that. But it does sound like you could be giving inspiration, so it's cool. I'll set my goal for 12.6 on street tires, with 346 rwhp and 320 ft/lbs. I'm sure it'll take time. But practice makes better.
Bert, he has a Greddy kit. With 115-116 and good tires, you can run 11s all day.
Basically i think you just need to let Alberto or myself drive the car.
u srs? now i feel like complete crap not hitting 11's with a 124mph trap. can i use the excuse of street tires on 19's with leak **** launches as an excuse?

I know not everyone is going to hit 11's with sub 400whp
But why shoot for being average? The OP should know with a set of DR's he COULD go 11's or low 12's at a minimum....

A lot of cars (ie Supras) with big turbos have lag if you let off the throttle while shifting. This platform, for the most part, have smaller turbos or two small twin turbos so they build boost pretty quickly.
