Has anybody with an S650 experienced "Ice Mode" while on track? This is a condition that occurs when braking hard, and the system decides that instead of on a dry, hot, sticky asphalt track in August, that you are instead in January in Anchorage and are braking on ice. The car applies as much...

Your 115.74 mph indicates a much lower e.t. My guess? Traction. Are you running the original tires at the drag strip? I see you said the track preparation was poor. Your 60 foot shows the issue. Get that 2+ second time down to 1.7 or below. Are you spinning? What rear tires are you...

I drive all winter. Last year we almost got some snow, too. Almost.

EDIT

LOL, August, then I remember your location.

If the vehicle is left as is the inferred temperature works well on the track. I am guessing it will be "off" once he pours 5W-50 in there.

Wow, very curious to see the result with 5W-50. Thank you for sharing this valuable information.

I get the warning, and the "go get some coffee" warning that I am sleepy. It pisses me off because it wakes me up. Man, that is annoying.

I am glad you got the car you liked and now share photographs of it in exotic locations. :like: I don't need to defend my choice. I wanted to track the car, so I bought the Dark Horse with the handling package. It was kind of an easy choice and makes for a fun track car that I can also...

I am assuming you know the difference between advertised octane ratings in the US and in Europe, but, just in case, I am reminding you to check that. This tune is essentially going to require 98 over there (Super Plus 98).

Really annoying when I am steering with my knees while one hand holds the beer I am sipping and the other a cigarette . . .

I am not arguing - just sharing what I know (and speculating a little about some things I do not, like the insanely high braking forces - which make me bet that there may be a difference in the programming for the ABS system). Not taking a side. I haven't heard of anybody with the GT...

I get folks stopping and commenting on the paint and appearance of the car all the time, and mine is not a "detailed" and shiny car show car like some of the others I see here (jealous). (I try to keep it reasonably clean, but I drive it rain or shine, and I have a well, which makes washing...

I never watched the temperatures on track (too busy driving, lol), but my car has never gone into a limp mode. I am a novice driver, however. The temperatures are going to depend upon the ambient temperature and who is driving. If you put some professional driver in there, and you have good...

The front brake rotors are different on the Dark Horse, as well, compared to the GT with performance package. I also suspect, but cannot prove, that the ABS is biased toward a allowing higher brake output, at least on the handling package Dark Horses, designed to take full advantage of the...

Prickly

LOL, I was kind of hoping the vacuum gauge was going to start reading positive after 0.

Wow. That is a lot.

What do you expect out of the Road race Steeda K member?

Is this stock or have you modified something?
