I waited to long it is hottt here already. Maybe come winter I will shed some weight off the car and run it one more time before I get the boost. Which I might be leaning towards the STG 2 kit from GTM now.

Yeah it was like 45-55 back in March when I ran, which is probably perfect temperature wise. I will probably go sometime in the summer just for fun since I won't have much to do.

I was launching around 1200-1500 rpms and didnt really slide at all. I had decent 60's though so I didnt want to go any higher.

What did you launch at and what were your 60's?

I only ran like 4 times and tried different launch rpms each time. 1500 seemed to work best, but I think it also depends on the track prep. I launched at 1500 my first run (which was the 12.9) and got no wheel spin. Something after that run screwed up the track prep and I got some spin at the same rpm the second time.

Mr&Mrs · 05-20-2011, 08:03 PM

Dropped the car off to get the wing put on. Should be picking her up Sunday will have pics up that night I hope

b1adesofcha0s · 05-20-2011, 08:10 PM

Which wing are you getting?

Mr&Mrs · 05-20-2011, 09:01 PM

I have the CF Amuse wing just didn't have time to get it put on until now.

b1adesofcha0s · 05-20-2011, 09:22 PM

Nice

Mr&Mrs · 05-22-2011, 06:48 PM

Well went to pick up the car today and when I pulled up the wing was not even on yet. The guy had it since 1PM Friday! So I see a bunch of scratches and a couple chips he has the holes covered with what looks like duct tape, and I almost blew a gasket. The only reason I didnt was because my wifes parents were with us. I was hoping the wing would cover all of the bad areas but of course im never that lucky.

Now I have a butchered hatch that I have to take somewhere and get fixed because I tried saving a few hundred bucks.

NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

b1adesofcha0s · 05-22-2011, 06:57 PM

Sorry to hear. The shop better be paying to fix the damages.

Mr&Mrs · 05-22-2011, 07:01 PM

To bad it wasnt a shop, just a word of mouth guy. I seen things he was working on, and past things he has done and they look amazing. Maybe he got hit in the head with a lead pipe the day I dropped the car off and suffered brain damage. He said he would fix it at no cost but I do not want him to even see my car ever again.

KaienZ34 · 05-22-2011, 07:15 PM

Man that totally sucks, that is one of the reasons i'm selling my CF Amuse kit.

Jamaica · 05-22-2011, 07:16 PM
