I think the increase in ET is due to the 2nd gear not spinning as much after the shift . If I shift the 1-2 at max power , it hits the tires to hard with the 3.73s and just spins . When I short shift it allows less tire slip while still being in a position for max acceleration . I came up with these shift points by datalogging my OSS and monitoring wheel spin . I still have around 2 tenths in wheelspin through the whole run .
Awesome info!

With my car 100% stock, it was the opposite. I found that shifting close to the limiter enabled the car to work better on the 2nd gear transition.

I didn't experience much spin on the slicks, I may have to look at the logs as it doesn't mean it's not there. I did get some decent movement of the tire on the wheel, but it appears to have found a happy spot to stay.

I was at 15psi and may even try to come up 2 psi and see what that nets me. All in all I just need some alone time at the track, lol.
