My Previous best was
1.901/8.276/[email protected] with CAI UDP, Corsa. Stock tire. 4.10 (ok it was very cold in october).

What is bothering me is my 60". They sucks a lot.

Here are some strange fact :
- After mounting my wheel, i brake hard, put the car in D and try to find the point where my car would start to move for setting up my MSD. Actually the car didn't move but around 3000/3100 tires start to spin slowly.
So i set up my MSD to 2900 and put my race tune (yeah i know it was an error but shouldn't have change as following :)

On the first stage as soon as went woot with the msd on the car moved slowly on the line. So i put the MSD at 2700. Second stage. the same. So i went to 2400 there it was ok (peharps it's 2600 or 2500 don't know the exact point, i was alone, pretty hard to watch every wheel and the rpm at the same time, so i stayed at 2400 to be sure).

Thinking there may be a problem with the msd i tried my last run with the MSD, starting from idle and going to WOT.
My tire pressure is at 19. Didn't feal/hear any spinning. But alone in the car with the helmet it's hard to say. For sure with a 60" like that... i tried to set it at 17 and the car moved from left to right at launch.

- Another strange thing. The burnout. I was unable to maintain 6000rpm more than 2 sec. if i continue the rpm drop to 0. So as soon as i saw my rpm dropping, i released totally the throttle and the line lock. but every time, while my car was moving the rpm went to 0 and the engine died. Didn't have that kind of problem before.

Did i miss something about the usage of the Stall, a tune problem, gremlins ?

Any idea thanks.

:idea:

Everyone was overpassing me on the road so i started my gps and my speedo was a lot faster than my real speed. Pulled off, set manualy in my tune the 4.10. Speedo is ok now. Wonder what else could be wrong in the tune.

Emailed this to Doug 3 days ago, no response either.

I'm doomed. No track for me today, i don't see the point to go with the car in this shape.
