I was there both days, got 14 runs in. Learning to launch AWD takes some practice, specially since i’m used to launching FWD and trying to feather is to prevent spinning. Its tough tricking myself to go WOT, hehe.

auto ls1 pulled the wheels next to me one pass. That may have been the car you speak of? He went 120.xx that pass, with a 1.5 60’. I don’t recall his ET though. I just know it really throws you off when you are launching, and the car next to you pulls the wheels and is gone .6 seconds before you!
