Finally was able to test out the car. I filled up half a tank with e85 and a 1/4 with 93, then made at least 5 good sprints where I pushed it hard. We took a little power out of it so it's hard to say where I'm at right now - I'm guessing 675rw on my e85/93 mix. But my God, it feels like you blink and you're hitting triple digits. I was backing off around 130 in 4th. She screamed like a French escort in Montreal. Here, take it, take all of my ethanol!

It still wasn't what I would call warm out (45F+) so I didn't have the stones to go WOT in 2nd. I did in 3rd and 4th and the tires hooked up well. Only had a slight break in traction once for a fraction of a second probably because of the conditions. I think 305's in back are good enough for now and they'll be better as the weather improves. I think it's probably perfect where it is power wise for the tires I have on. For anyone curious, I've pulled 1g on turns with this setup and the stock MRC suspension, no problem. All I did was change the rear arms and am not going to bother adding weight with 1LE package. I don't need it.

Huge thank you to Ted and all the guys over at Jannetty. My face still hurts from either being stretched back or laughing out of pure enjoyment of what I have in this car. I can't imagine needing anything more on the street. It's incredible, thank you for taking good care of it too

Any plans to hit Limerock for some track work, or maybe Lebanon Valley drag strip?

I really should. I think I'm going to need a harness and cage though if I take it to a strip with the NHRA rules. I'm going to look for a car club so I can get on Limerock or drive up to NH.

That is one badass machine

Lets get some slicks or DR's on it this spring and get some laps in at the strip. It should be wicked as hell.

Hey les, i have a simmilar setup as you and am curious what tires your using and if you had it in track mode with traction and stability off. Comp mode. Ive noticed in track mode with the nannies on i can roll into the power nicly and it manages putting "some" power down well. But in competition mode i cannot roll into 1st,2nd or 3rd. I these temps im on xice 275 40. Ive tried 315 winter carving edge, to rough. And all seasons or summer tires seem to loose traction below 70 degrees. Whats your secret tire?
