I gotta wait till it's warmer. LOL. Been cool here in ATL. I'd never get a good hook up.

OK, how do you get that timer to actually go? I thought if you had it up and you were at a stop and just ran it up to 60 it would give you at time, clearly I'm doing something wrong :-) Is there a mode you have to put it in?

Don't forget to reset it. Even the first time the unit needs reset or it will not start timer.

Tried this last weekend and was very disappointed. The engine was absolutely loving the 51 degrees, the tires however where giving me the middle finger. 4.7 is all I got.

3.92s Deserted but not-that-smooth road, but I won't be trying that again anytime soon.

GS with stock MPSS summer tires, back in Fall. I had just started out of a little gravel so I was quite happy with this time.



I forgot to set the timer, so what I have above is from the PDR file opened in the Cosworth Toolbox.

DOH! And then to start it, it is just as it says on the display, mash the accelerator from a stop and it will calculate it?

I need to wait until the weather warms before I can get a best time. Still, 4.5 is not bad for a graceful start, 50 deg temp, and not full WOT for the full run.

I finally pulled a respectable time with a passenger and not full throttle lol

need stickier tires or warmer weather.

I manually shifted to 2nd at about 15mph and slowly put my foot down which still triggered TC.

these cars are beasts. It's fun to try now and then though.
