Drop a few PSI from the front tires, select "+R mode", fully disable VSA, and feather out the clutch from around 3,000~3,500 RPM if you are not tuned (stock rev limiter).

If you don't spin or wheel-hop and nail your shifts, you can break into the 13's and trap well in to the 100's. Good luck and have fun!:drive:

This was at Gateway in ST. LOUIS.
Bogged the launch,(didnt want to roast the tires), and 1st to 2nd shift didnt go in at first, so I lost about .5 seconds), I did lose traction at high rpms in 2nd, and 3rd, but it gripped and went fine, until I got to the finish line. Not sure if I let up before or after the flags. We only got 1 run for low ET. If I got a few runs, it could be lower. This was for 1 lap of America. Car 68. The wife crumpled it up cause she thought it was a gas receipt. I yelled at her that it was my timeslip..LOL

please dont tell me you got a 13.5 with all those mods in your sig block?
yep/ bows head in shame...I will see if I can find my 12.2-12.5 testing sessions before I went..

Other than the tune and maybe DP, most mods were done with cooling and increased sound in mind.
