What did you do to your Supra today?

A 2.24 60' isn't just tires. Let's get you some launching lessons. Someone has my post around here somewhere, right?

I definitely need this post I'm horrible at launching.

I’m using your technique from that post. Pump the brake pedal, hold gas around 3k rpm and let her rip in 2nd. I know I’m fucking up the shifting points but also the tires burn 2nd thru 3rd sometimes 4th. Maybe a big burnout to warm them up, IDK…been a long time since I raced…

Yeah, lower tire pressure. What tires do you have? You shouldn't burn -that- much.

@Shelby Miles what tires would you recommend? And size?

@Shelby Miles I don't understand? It's over 14 second 1/4, that's terrible!

A 14.25 at 47 mph. He hit the brakes after the 1/8th

I didn’t even notice that, but 8.x at 94 isn’t exactly screaming

Coated Seats, Boot Liner, and partially footwells and head liner too (wherever I could reach without risking overspray on trim) with GTechniq l1 AB v3, the newest version which does waterproof, anti mould and antibacterial fabric coating.

It's a yearly treatment more or less, I used it (v2) in 2022 when I bought the car new, and I was genuinely impressed that it wasn't a gymmick (see image below for alcantara water beading) so decided to do it again now the car is 1 year old.

Also tested water beading now before applying, and it was gone, so product effect did expire as expected in just under a year.

It is a nasty job IMO, as it smells a Lot, you need gloves and mask, strong alcohol smell which will dwell in the car for several days and requires a lot of time to dry (24 hrs) currently airing it out.

My car sits long periods 2-3 weeks at a time in a damp garage even though I run a dehumidifier and try to ventilate frequently. I have a 'mould phobia' if that's a thing lol, so trying to avoid any surprises,
/ reduce risk, just in case...

Got my phone mount in and my helmet for my free track day in October.

Where can I find this phone mount?
