Mine was a snell 85, could not use and only got to make one pass, BIG BUMMER!

Traction control off, 1000rpm launch, let the trans do the shifting.

Was against a Challanger SRT8. My reaction time was slow & a little bit of wheel spin. Next time I will paddle shift myself. The computer shifted around 4500, which was too soon and it kind of bogged. I beat him in most catagories, but he passed the line first.
4500 rpms? I'd have that checked out. It should be up around 5500-5700 rpms. Also I guess you're the car that ran 13.56 @ 104.07 mph.
