what gear / tire combo

Man, technology is COOL! So, as you guys know, I had some shifting problems at the track and figured it was costing me some ET and MPH. My best time was a 7.5@96/11.5@124. Well, I haven't got my issue fixed yet, but I was hoping to see what it was and how much it was costing me. It's hitting the 7700 rpm rev limiter. Looking at the data log, the rev limiter hit on the 1-2 is costing me .4 seconds and 6MPH! (how many mph it gains in that .4 after hitting 2nd). On top of that, it was banging the 2-3 as well, but I didn't log that just now. It wasn't quite as severe, so maybe not as much of an impact. I'm VERY encouraged. This thing should have a GOOD TEN @ some decent MPH even at 2000' DA! NOW to get out to HPP and get it fixed!Don't worry about what you can't change.
Do the best you can with what you have.
Be honest, even if it hurts.

Not to be a jerk, but thats carb 101... Check idle/ return to idle and WOT after making sure no fuel leaks.Some cars and a bike...
Some say... they have been raced, some a lot

Now that the throttle is open all the way its spin city for me. Who would have thought it would be such a problem getting a 200 hp car to get traction.

It's flat though, it barely holds on from 50mph in second with nitto nt01s.

Even with all the pedaling, I had a fender on him until 110-120 the. He pulled a fender on me. His was stock with the stick shift. Those cars run really well once the get rolling.
We did some roll racing, and I got drug by a car or so. That's with me shifting at 6,000 and hitting it at 3000. Which is turd city.
