Default I really can't get over how fast my car is!!!! I had to put it in chip'd/stg3 mode at lunch today

to show a coworker. He started working here 2 days after my little incident, so this is the first he's getting a ride. I showed him stockmode first, which he felt earlier this week, then switched EMCS into stg3(93oct) mode. OMG!!! It's ridiculous! I know a lot of my emotion here is just due to me driving my Golf for 3 months, but still! I logged last night and saw 3.9 FATS, for reference, so at least I have some idea how to quantify what my untrained butt is feeling. I recall in the past being able to feel it run slower with another person in the car, but not the case today. WOOOOHOOOOO!

Thanks for bearing with my excitement ;-)

The question is, does the new coworker want your car, or is he afraid of you now?

Default somewhere in between. I then told him how Dave's car is faster....

and my race program is faster than that, and then there's always N2O And he still didn't run away. He inquired about drag and road course racing. I told him about my problem getting traction at the drags and told him I'd show him one of these days - maybe he'll scare after that ;-)
