So yeah, no problems on mine.

I'm not trying to disparage anyone who is actually having problems, but I wonder how many people have done a single timed launch, come up with a disappointing number, and never tried again under different conditions, or a different launch type.

Again, I'm not aiming this at anyone in particular, as obviously some people have had or are having problems, and just want them resolved, but the reason I say this is that I've also had disappointing 0-60 times (>6.5 sec) in addition to some good times (<5.2), and I'm wondering if some people just haven't found the optimum launch, combined with perhaps some rather nasty weather conditions.
0-60 runs should be in the 4.7-4.9 for it to be considered good times with the automatic. 5.0-5.3 0-60 is about what the LS2 in the GTO bone stock would get..
