You need to develop a groove and consistency. That will make you react and time the launch and shifting much quicker.

I had good launches but the heat was definitely holding me back.

first run 1.65 60ft...but apparently the system didnt work when I ran so I didnt get a time slip freaking crapitol. I dont know why it didnt work when I saw the 60ft on the screen.

second run 1.72 60ft missed second..let off

third run 1.71 60ft 11.40 at 122

The time slip had 122 for the temp, but I think that's just wrong. It's around 92+

First of all, I have made 3 passes with the car when it was at 330 whp. I understand it's not alot but I do have a stock clutch and wasn't too keen on having to replace it so early in the cars life. I allowed Nick to make a few more on the car because I made the trip out to the track but was shut down because of my age.

Now, I didn't say unlike most people I GO to the track, I said unlike most people I WILL. Of course, your selective reading skills seem to always choose to skip these minute details. I see dyno charts all day long on EvoM and very rarely see track times on aftermarket turbo set ups. Go check out the official DCEVOCLUB drag times and see who is #2, #3, and #5. Oh, DTM EVOS!

Let me draw from some of your sponsors so my claims have some evidence.

What did turkishexpress's car run in the 1/4? Memo? We have dyno charts, but what do those mean in the "real world". Ok, moving on.

I never made a claim. If your unfamiliar with what a claim is, let me remind you.

Claim: Verb: To state to be true, especially when open to question; assert or maintain.

I clearly used the words "think" and "dunno", which is slang for "don't know".

Think: To have or formulate in the mind. To reason about or reflect on; ponder: To believe; suppose: To expect; hope:

Honestly, if it doesn't trap 120, I will be disappointed. If it does, hooray. If not, then we will address it then.

As far as the power differences go when looking at the dyno chart I did not realize the tq and hp Y axis were scaled differently. There is 50 more ft/lbs of torque and about 45 more whp. My mistake on that.

I've never exaggerated numbers (at least on purpose), I've always shown dyno charts.

I'm 18 years old, so please treat me like an adult. You can ask anyone who has met me in person if my age does my behavior/demeanor/knowledge justice.

I get the money by selling crack then smoking whatever left over as you can tell.

But, knowing your age does justify your actions. In any case, if you must mention me, please capitalize the "T". Thanks
