458 at dragstrip!

132+mph from an avg Joe in automode is pretty damn good!

From the driver:

Thanks very much. I just pressed the gas pedal; no credit to me. A couple of additional notes: the track was cold (45 degrees) and was only treated for the first 60 feet. So in better conditions, I should be able to knock it down to close to 11.0. And of course this is ET, so there's no reaction time -- it's start to finish.

Launch control requires running manual. In race mode-auto, you can pedal launch (depress the break and floor it) and it will rev and launch on break release. It's a very similar effect, but you're in auto. For me at least, auto will be a lot faster because I don't know when to hit the gear shifts perfectly.

Easily an 11 second car without the wheel spin.

Now you are just gloating.

Oh my goodness, those are the best trap speeds I've seen on that car, yet! I love how you did it in auto mode as well! Thanks for the comic relief. BTW, what's the elevation out there?

Never ran it in the 1/4.. Only thing I could measure it with was racing the SP Engineering GTR which when i ran it, was running 148-151 at the dragstrip.. On pump gas with it on race gas we were pretty much dead even..
