Talking Gtech Pro Competition times

I went over to my buddy Steve's house. Steve's a big time racing enthusiast, and basically knows how to drive a car really well (Just ask Danno, he'll tell you the same thing). I was rather pissed off at my runs at Speedway (2 passes in 7 hours, and they were both botched runs). Basically I launched the car miserably at the track. We went out to do some testing with it, strictly for legal purposes of course Anyways, I did a few 60' times (2 are required, before any other form of acceleration tests are performed). Basically I cut a a 2.1, 22, and then a 1.9 sec. 60'. After feeling like a champ, as I thought that my driving skills had completely diminished from my day at the track, Steve asks me to stop just redlining the motor, and to instead rev it repeatedly. I said sure why not. I tached the car inbetween 5000-5500 rpms repeatedly and then let down a bitching awd burn out. The boost came on strong, and I could tell my baby was powering out of the hole alot stronger. My result was a 1.88 sec. 60'. I then did some 1/4 mile passes with the new driving technique that Steve taught me. We first did a launch on to a lreeway on ramp. My results were as follows (Why couldn't I have run this with my only run against Danno at Speedway?)
60' - 1.88 sec.
1/8 - 8.4 @ 84 mph
1/4 - 13.2 @ 101 mph

2nd run
60' 1.88 sec (Yet again, and i'm stuck here btw)
1/8 - 8.5 @ 83 mph
1/4 - 13.3 at 103.9 mph

I now know how to launch the car and get consistant 1.8 sec. 60' (Make that 1.88 sec. 60' ). It made up for the horrible track experience. Hope to run you soon Danno.
