So on my third pass I could REALLY smell the clutch, so I probably did more harm than good (I was noticing issues on the stretches at the road course I run too) but had fun nonetheless.
This vid is my first pass ever in the car. I damn near killed it trying to launch softly, but ran a 12.88 at 113mph (that doesn't add up
). I ran 114.7mph my 3rd pass at 12.90 so I was gaining mph but by the smell of the clutch I had been slipping all three passes. I expected around 118mph by doing some math based on HP and weight, so I probably lost 2-4 mph due to the clutch.
but you guys may enjoy this anyway

the Mitsu next to me ran 120 mph (I forget the ET)! So he is making some power in that car. There was a 997TT right behind me (AWD and 473HP factory) and ran 11.97 @ 114mph. He did almost the identical pass later that day when I was in the stands.
Pic of him behind me for the first pass of the day attached, along with a pick of something rather amazing
