not quite, a hole shot is the one to break the beams first (reaction time)

Next time I'll raise it to like 2200 and hope to get into the low 10s on pump gas. On the 2nd half of the track I was also pulling away.

George, what is the stall speed of your converter ? assuming it's over 3000 I agree, 1700 may be getting too much of a 'run' at your converter. Regardless, 1.5 60' is sweet !

Nice picture, I had a 2015 ruby-red GT, it was a 6spd manual. Just bought a 2017 GT, grabber blue, black accent and wheel package, 6spd manual.

Very cool George. And looking good too in that metallic red! I saved that pic to both Mustang & 911 folders.
I've been thinking I'd like to have a car that accelerates as quickly as the stock Yamaha Vmax I had almost 30 years ago. I didn't race it but the figures of the day were 10.9 and 0-60 in 2.9. Your car is quicker. It's awesome.

I looked in the comments for the time. There was just one comment and it was actually that very question.
Do you mind if I cut/paste most of the above to Youtube?

No problem, you can use as you like.

It's 3500-3700 RPMs

Thanks! Grabber blue is a eye catcher!

No I have a supercharger & custom tune. The Porsche has a custom exhaust & a custom tune. He said I was the 2nd car that beat him and it was a Nissan GT-R.
