Hey Jeff,

Thanks. The opening run on my Subaru vid, had me whacking away at my shifter. Violent! My best was an 11.16"....
You can see how subtle, yet effective, Junior's shifting and launch were. He went three tenths quicker. I'm still not talking to him.

And that's how Flippin' HARD it is to go fast at the drags.

That's still a good time and was some good driving. supposedly launching those AWD Cars is very hard. i watched the videos, i love how stock the G sounds even with all the HP. i'm guessing you sold the subaru for the G? why didn't you go for the G37Sx? you seem to like AWD if you had the subaru..

yes your tuner's driving was very good. that was brave of you to let him launch the car that hard hahaah.

Haha, great video. It really did sound like you were going to rip the shifter off. 10.85 is awesome. My '05 STi made 490ish whp and like 475 tq, but I never got it to the drags. Spent much more time on the track. Would have loved to turn it over to a good driver and see if it could make 10s.

Did the AEM give you launch control capability? It sounded like it at the line. Getting that big GT35R spun up was key.
