DSG launch control delay will add nearly a half second to your reaction time if you don't account for it

If all works out right, I should be able to get a 1/4 time for a stock(ish, no power upgrades) PP GTI this Wednesday. Will post mods and slip if I'm able to make it.

Weight reduction has been performed. I have the passenger seat, rear seats, and everything removable from the trunk in a tarp right now, and moving it around I'm pretty sure it's impossible for one person of my strength to lift. I'm feeling pretty good about this Wednesday!

my R runs circles around his stock is12 :'D where is his time sheet? I know he's gone to the track...
Will be interested to see what you run. Not aware of many IS20 times, especially with the 5MT. I'm thinking of heading out tonight as well, but I don't have any motivation to pull the seats lol. I just want that one last great pass before I do my IS38.
If this is true that is AWESOME.
If I hit 12.8 i'll be ecstatic considering it's a damn GTI with just a piggyback tune.
Will be trying out map 6 for the first time this weekend so excited

Unfortuinately my clutch is now dead. Today at the drag strip was what finished it off. My first launch was a 2.208 60' and was looking great, then I shifted into 2nd and it wasn't looking good, then 3rd and there was nothing. After I let the clutch cool down I made a few more passes, and below is the best of those passes, but it was a relatively gentle launch and granny shifts the whole way. I'll be back later with a new clutch to try to set the NA FWD 1.8t record, but at least I got the mph for the IS20.

With that MPH, you should be around 13.0 or less, so at least you know there's a lot more in it.
And you almost won that bracket, your opponent had a hell of a R/T though!

Apparently he's been racing there for 40 years. Nobody ever stands a chance against those old guys at bracket drags.

Here's my second ever run at Sonoma (I'm car 137)
I was up against a Focus RS, gotta say I really wasn't expecting to come out on top.

No, they’re not, but stock they should trap just about that but should get it done a second quicker
