I have a question on how to get the lowest ET for 0-60 and 1/4 mile test using TracApps. Should I have Traction Control or AdvanceTrac on or off? Or AdvanceTrac in Sport mode? I'm just thinking that if it's turned off (either one) wouldn't you just smoke the tires thus losing precious time in accelerating? You never see Pro drag racers smoking tires on launch other than the initial burnouts. BTW, I have a stock base GT with those "skinny" 235/50R18 tires. Thanks!

I saw a YouTube video of a guy that launch tested on the street in each mode and got the best results in Advance Trac Sport mode ... Of course there are many variables car to car , driver to driver , track vs street .

A10 vs m6 makes a difference as well. I would think the A10 might do better with it on. I have an m6 and got my best times NA with it off. Boosted I do better with it on.
