After looking again at your numbers, your DA and Elevation are your bottleneck on those pulls.

I have cup2s to install early next week. M Eng sent me a revision, I will try it out tonight if it stops raining or tomorrow.
..
The 60ft feels good, I am spinning some, but it pulls damn hard, its the top end that I didn't see much improvement over stock... My MPH should be higher than stock by a decent amount with 100WHP+ more.

I plan to replace them completely every season vs cleaning etc. Thanks for the heads up.

These cars will engage traction control throughout the rev-range in some conditions and cases, and even more so on stock Pirellis. As a result, the car will close throttle at certain points as a part of TC intervention. This is all exacerbated when adding more power to the car as well. So if you have stock tires, the chances of this happening are higher. TC will also lightly come on at some points and not necessarily flash a light on the dash or be something big you can feel. MPH and all other metrics will vastly improve with the right tires.

We have a big note on our calibration notes related to exactly this:

Can traction control be totally turned off?

If I hold the button down it turns off and if you continue to hold something else seems to turn off. Is the long hold on the button completely turning it off or it will stick kick back on with massive wheel spin?

Im going to install the cup2s today.

I normally don't recommend turning off TC at all. These cars do a really good job managing wheel spin and grip, with the right tires. Although, that does depend on your surface and conditions, etc. so it may be worth it to play around with those settings to see what times improvement in different TC scenarios. Cup2s at 28psi is usually a really good grippy combo. You can bump up as high as 32psi as well. Just play around with pressures and see what works best.

To totally turn off TC, you would have to actually enter dyno mode. And that will put the car in RWD as well. It's pretty dangerous to drive like that on the street and I cannot recommend it in any situation.

So you're saying your dyno mode programming has us driving a virtual GT2RS when activated?

^^ LOL I didn't want to be the first to say this as I went out and put it into dyno mode for a spin... Can you drive on the "race track" without any damage to car systems in this mode? Sounds fun!

No it is super dangerous and it also disables other safety systems like ABS and other safety sensors. There's a chance you could also mess up the friction discs on the front diff by driving on the street. I wouldn't experiment with that. That sounds expensive. It is for dyno use only.

So disconnect the front driveshaft and now we have a quarter million dollar drift car!

hahah, Do not do this guys, we are just joking around.

Waiting for the rain to move on and going to install cup 2s and more testing of this new revision. I am hoping they opened up the top end more to match the mid range. Zoom

Did I mention the Soul Race exhaust sounds amazing? Whoever said Porsches don't sound good?? This sounds way better than my F90 M5.

Its really hard to capture the correct sound on an iphone. It sounds amazing though, WOW, so much turbo noise and very deep throaty exhaust tone. I absolutely love it.
