But not as good as dark purple or that RS blue posted earlier. (IMO)

The car feels good and after a recent alteration the car is running well.

0-60mph = 3.6 seconds
0-60mph down a slope = 3.3 seconds
0-60mph up a slope = 4.0 seconds.

These knock 0.2 seconds off previous runs at the same place.  :driver:

Even setting off uphill without launch control still gives a 4.4 second time :smiley:

 Went back to GIAC to alter the settings for the stage 3 DSG map. Much more aggressive when I want it to be, but still smooth as silk whilst driving normally. As a result it hasn't altered any higher speed runs by much, but enough to know I'm in the LOW 12's for a quarter mile run.

Things will change again soon too. :innocent:

The launch is so much better; cleaner, sharper and more aggressive . The 1/4 mile terminal speeds are a little better, but the times are easily better than before.
