First off, was cool seeing a lot of the forum members on here last night. Wish I could’ve hung around a bit longer but my brother was not feeling well. All cool guys though with some sweet audis. Hope we can do something like that again!
My car…
Beat my previous best of 11.9 @ 114. I ran a few 11.8 @ 116’s. Happy that the car is moving faster but still not where I want it because I have the recipe for a better time. Consistently trapping 116/115 which is better than my previous 114’s, but still not where it should be. I’m looking forward to figuring this out before the season ends, I will get new logs to help with this
Unfortunately my darn ross tech will not update its firmware so I couldn’t log. Sucks because I really want to see where the car is falling of.
I do have my own idea on where the car is lacking though. 1-2 shift was money all night but every shift there after, I heard the clutch slipping on upshift. Not so pronounced as Ron’s 4-5 shift, but from in the car I can tell that was one factor slowing me down. The lower traps I can’t quite figure out though… I’m guessing sakimano might not agree here but I think the dsg tune is needed for a little more trap speed and to get seamless shifts at this power level. The car just was not shifting perfectly all night, with the exception of 1-2 surprisingly.
Also the car feels like it’s bleeding boost in 3rd gear, it felt like it was backing off in 3rd and then pulled much harder in 4th again… This is speculation and I’m going off what I felt last night after sleeping on it… I’m going to try and get back out to Lapeer tomorrow to log passes
Anyways, DA I think was around 150… ~52F, 36F/32R in tires

The car spun through 1st and part of second on this one! Both Mike and I could not hook on this one
