    Which run did you see? (either way all were shitty) I wasn't hitting over 15psi...even after i let it cool down. I wasn't goin hard on the car coz didn't know what it could handle or if it would break...i kind of tested it every run. Ya i need to launch it harder...those were only 4k launches yesterday. I got a 6spd, but still have the stock axles and r160. If I hard launched on those heavy ass 19's...i def would have popped something.

    I saw the very last one. And aren't you running the vf39? you should be hitting higer psi then that, whats your max psi your car is tuned for?

    and 4k launches are weak man, lol. but yeah i guess thats ok for your first time at the track.. i did pretty good too when i went to ISD, considering it was my first time too.. Keep learning all you can about it man, you'll be confindent against anything when you know you can launch without fucking up.

    i know i should be hitting higher PSi (car's tuned for few more digits)....sucks when i have no heat shield and no thermal wrap and pretty much saying "welcome heat soak". You should have seen mine and josh's desperate attempts to keep my pipes cool by covering them by ice cold/filled towels....didn't help for jack. My pipes were sizzling hot even when i was in stagging lanes. I wanted to do harder launches, but at the same time drive the car home not tow it lol. 4k launches didn't get me any where.
