and LOL when I reread that. You just proved it even more. A real driver was able to reproduce just about the same results you did in a stock car (as in the driver in that case might have been held back by the car) so your handicap (intake, exhaust, cold/lean night air, etc) made up for the lack of experience! Go put the stock shit back on, and run it again. If you come within .3 from that “pro driver” then i will say hiphiphoray! ---

You said it twice now. Once when someone showed you that the built in launch control shit does, and you were like WOAAH I didnt know it can do that, it ripps now.

Okay, this makes a bit more sense but you don’t need to preach to let me know you’re not impressed with low 13’s on a 300hp awd car. Just say that lol I know you guys dont like the phoenix, but you dont need to. I do, and since its my car, thats all that matters. Acetone will take that right off if I ever choose to.

I read a bit on evo forums about this and very few dudes auto x these in comparison to those who take them to tracks like LRM. I’ll tell you, its far more difficult to control this car around a tight course light that than it is around large swooping corners at 70.
