It should have a 165 in it if I can get full use out of 1st and don't have to short shift 4th.

As you could see I slowed way down between the 4 -> 5 shift but still trapped 158 that run

That's impressive. My friends Turbo S and Huracan are good for ~155 stock on street tires in the 1/2 mile. So your just above the exotics. You would lose in the 1/4 on street tires though.

Ideally I should be shifting at 6900-7000. But I had to short shift a lot because of traction issues that I didn't pedal the gas for, and because 5th gear was being difficult.
So on some of those shifts I was shifting at like 6200. Which isn't even my peak power.


Gonna air down the tires more and change my trans fluid and brake/clutch fluid before the next event.
Needs an aftermarket clutch(McLeod), stock one sticks to the floor sometimes when it's hot after/during a pass.
