Truth be told.
Make sure you have good tires, they make a huge difference. I cut 2.0 60fts with nice tires, and can't break past 2.1's with shitty tires.. they help tons

Yeah congrats man. I took home 1st place at that show, with my slipping stock clutch  . Everytime I launched the car a smelled nothing but clutch. It got so bad that I couldn't even get into 2nd or 3rd anymore, so I stopped racing and hoped that my time couldn't be beat. With a good clutch my times would be much better than they were easily. I also took home fasatest scion overall, and best reation time with a near perfect.001 reaction time. I also took home a 2nd place trophy for the TC wild category. It was a good day.
