^^ saw your vid against the Stang Billy. Good run 
This is how I want to launch. It looks so perfect. I tried this method the other day. Flutter, floor it THEN release brakes and the acceleration seemed much stronger..

Managed a 12.582 this weekend. Still on stock RA turbo. Blip the accelerator a couple times til the lights start to drop. Then hold the pedal to the floor. Let off the brake at the last yellow and away we go. Usually between 1.73-1.79 60' times. Very consistent. I have a video ill upload later hopefully. I also have another of me squealing the tires on launch, too, though I'm sure that's been seen before

good to see 12.5 on stock turbo
Best weight reduction in a DD, the driver's few extra lbs
Its best to launch on at 3k on the stock RA turbo, anything bigger 5k would be best due to the crazy turbo lag.
For anything bigger than an RA stock turbo -
I just recommend you have the tuner decrease the 1st gear at higher RPM's, I went into limp mode every launch and the car wouldn't come out of 1st gear. The percentages is 100% in every RPM range in the RA in 1st gear. Have the %'s decrease to about 90% to 80% to 55% in the higher RPM's so the wastegate closes earlier allowing you to shift properly to 2nd gear.

280 treadwear street tires
Hankook V12 EVO K110 245/45r17
Best ever is a 1.68 iirc
Thanks. I'm still on pump gas and have a few more changes I'd like to make to the car. From a 12.79 last year to a 12.58 this year, stock-turbo 11's are just getting closer and closer...

Went to IFO today to run my RA. Best time was a 14.06 @ 97mph. Only thing I have is HKS drop in, evox fmic, licp, depo racing uicp, and evo x bov. Still on stock tune. Next mod will be GST boost pill and basemap. Hope to be in the low 13's with that. Best time was in auto-sport! Not as fun but didnt get that rev hang between 1st and 2nd gear.
