God the 60' SUCKED!!! Oh well, just proof that these vehicles only like to rev.

My old times are posted above...

Well I got a new best with the LS today. Not much better than the other time but an improvement no less. I was asleep at the wheel for this run though as you could tell by my R/T. Some dudes were in friggin HIBERNATION behind the wheel! I seen some go with a 2.0+ second R/T!!! And no they werent spooling a big turbo either. hehehe. Here is my new best ET and MPH.

R/T.........353
60'........2.216
330.......6.220
1/8.......9.455
MPH....77.14
1000...12.189
1/4.....14.489
MPH....98.17

Not too shabby for $300 in mods.

I think that if I were to take the spare out and maybe only bring it with 1/4 tank of gas and with a little more practice behind the wheel of this car I can get it down to a 14.3 @ 99 or so. It would be nice to break 100MPH but I really don't think 2 additional MPH at this power level is reasonable in the least! hehe.

Heck of a difference in the reaction time but everything else looks like it fell in place pretty well. The LS must have been feeling pretty good today to pull off better times the whole way down the track!!

I was driving it a little more aggressive today than I was able to the other day to get a better feel for timing the shifts in SST mode.

The times were overall better, especially the 60' which is what REALLY helped me with this run! Even then I still chirped my tires for the first 15 feet or so. I need to really get my shift command timing down so as to make the car complete the shift when I want it to.

If you will notice, I had a better MPH at the 1/8 marker on my old run than my new best run. This leads me to believe that I could have shifted a little better in my run today though my 60' still saved me. I brake torqued it a little higher and launched a tad more aggressively this time is what accounted for the improved 60'.
