Man I am not sure that I'd be too happy running those times with all the mone
y spent thus far. I remember spending a fair amount on my S2000 only to run marginal times. To me, it takes too much money to try and make the S competitive in the 1320. This is one of the reasons I parted with it and moved onto something else.
I hope you get your issues sorted out so you can achieve more competitive times. Best of luck to you!

Man I was actually pretty excited, I still am. I dont care too terribly much about the ET, I understand the limitations of the drivetrain, but honestly 127 mph is pretty fast, the car moves once it gets off the line, so on the highway, its pretty much untouchable 99% of the time. 130 mph traps can easily be achieved with my Q16 tune. Either way, its about what I expected, and I was proud to drive it home . I would much rather have a car that traps 127, and me run the 12.4, then me rum an 11.5 with a car that traps 115

Yea, I was jealous of the Vette guys, must be nice to beat the shit out of the car and not worry about breaking diffs ya know. It was nice when it hooked in third, if only it could do that in 1st and 2nd and not break anything, lol. I am going to upgrade the axles and diff this winter. I know the tranny will be next but I think 12lbs in 2nd should last me a few more track days.........I hope

And I understand completely, but you can make that argument about continuously wasting money on anything

I felt the same way when I spent 1.9 million on my Bugatti Veyron.
