With some more work, I think we can get it to leave right. It takes ***** leaving the line with all you have, knowing you could be pushed back to the pits by your buddies
Especially driving to the track
Congrats andrew, we will get it, just need some more seat time and Test n tune time

Too bad that the base C6 rears aren't quite up to the standards/strength of the C6 Z06 rear.
