might have been answered before but quick question, need some opinions

Ive got a 2SS MT with just a few bolt on parts. I havent taken it to the track, and to be honest I'm not sure if i even indend to. Curious though, what kind of track times have you guys seen with the different modes you can put the car in. (stabilitrak and traction control off, competition mode, traction control off, or both on). What have you guys noticed yielding the quickest times?

I have yet to try the stabilitrak or competition mode on my car at the track. When i race it i like having control of how the car hooks by slipping the clutch and the amount of throttle i give it off of the line. Its not a consistent route to take but i think you will receive your best E.T.s like this. Alot is going to depend on a persons experience racing and how to adjust for the best launch.

TC will kill your sixty foot. Stabilitrak probably won't hurt unless you get loose then an inexperienced driver will be glad its on. Competition control applies limited ABS (less than TC but it still slows you down) better to feather or pedal the gas to control wheel spin. Try holding pedal steady during wheel spin and roll into into as it is coming out of wheel spin. Roll in faster if it bogs coming out of wheel spin and slower if too much wheel spin. I need 3000 rpms or more coming out of wheel spin for it not to bog when hit the gas. Don't launch on rev limiter in Comp mod that is a good way to break things. Too high to launch anyway.
