Mobius, do you have a ssk or the stock shifter?

Very much stock and very much original and sloppy as hell. It's coming up on my list of things to fix.

60' times were in the 2.6-2.7 range. Horrible. 225/60/15 Goodyears at 32 psi. Mid-high 15's sounds reasonable if you could get it out of the hole.

Interesting. Looks like my stupidly expensive black box might not be as far off as I thought it might be.

I have no problem launching - but I attribute most of that to the fact that the road my friends and I use to do G-Tech runs on (middle of _nowhere_ in the middle of the night - dead end road, about a mile long) has this rough asphalt/hard sharp gravel surface. Breaking traction is nearly impossible - even standing on the brakes won't activate ABS.

So I'm probably cheating.
