I ran my car 4 events so far,...3 events I had to go to 3rd twice, and the other event I hit the limiter 2 times, but not worth 3rd.
IMO -- especially for east coast guys heading to Toledo or Wilmington for Tours/Pros, the likelihood of a course going over 60 is fairly high. Maybe not 70 but with the size of the sites and general mindset, speeds are going to challenge the limitation currently in place. Just saying that dragging the limiter is not going to be the answer.
no different on the west coast. i went to 3rd 3x @ the crows landing pro in 2014 in an FS S197 (3.31, 68mph in 2nd). most years, no matter what other car i've been in, regardless of gearing (DS ITR, BS GXP, SS Elise) NT courses @ SD/el toro/crows need 3rd gear too. with the short gearing of the S550, i think these are the courses that are most beneficial, because the shift is a given.
schneller fahren!
No.
Looks really good. Getting more and more jealous of your exhaust.
