Tested JCW at Drag Strip

Did 8 runs...(DA) was +1100...Temps were low 70s...Biggest deal was traction off the line. Results in order:
1) 2.4164 (60ft)…9.7393/78.78(1/8th mile)… 14.5977/104.02(1/4 mile)
2) 2.5442 (60ft)… 9.8281/78.71(1/8th mile)… 14.6990/104.41(1/4 mile)
3) 2.4381 (60ft)… 9.5744/82.19(1/8th mile)… 14.3847/104.65(1/4 mile)
4) 2.5926 (60ft)… 9.6341/81.08(1/8th mile)… 14.4865/103.76(1/4 mile)

Started short shifting...feathered a bit in 1st off the line...shifted at ~6000rpm
5) 2.4476 (60ft)… 9.4159/81.37(1/8th mile)… 14.2017/105.93(1/4 mile)
6) 2.3182 (60ft)… 9.3523/81.55(1/8th mile)… 14.1968/103.78(1/4 mile)

Now feathered the start a bit easier and shifted into 2nd earlier...started shifting at ~5750/5800 rpm

7) 2.3886 (60ft)… 9.2960/82.46(1/8th mile)….14.0920/104.94(1/4 mile)
8) 2.2140 (60ft)… 9.1226/80.83(1/8th mile)… 13.9061/105.81(1/4 mile)

With the DA @ +1100 adjusted times would be around 13.75/107

All in all...getting out of 1st early and shifting before 6000 rpm keeps the Mini in Power Mode and gives better traction control in 1st to 2nd

Pretty Happy with the MarioKart ECU Tune and the Racing Dynamics 2.75 Catted Downpipe after Swain White Lightning Powder Coating. At the next AutoX I will be getting out of 1st gear almost immediately. Supposedly it means I am getting ~225HP to the ground minimum
