Cool Cool video of 2 WDP TLS at the Texas Motorplex

The Battle Royale between two WDP TLS ...

Left lane Ruf87 (lightweight wheels)
vs
Right lane InfernoTLS (comptech headers)

I think both ran around 14.7 on this pass.

Also, listen to the nice 2nd gear rubber being laid.

Here's the link to AcuraCL site for more info on the Texas Motorplex Meet.

Questions for the studs! how did you launch? SHifting technique? It looks like you guys just gunned it in D5 or something?

Nope, I never ever race in D anything. I always shift gate and take it to 7,000RPM in 1st and 2nd. And that run I powerbraked around 1500RPM.

Note, the track surface was cold and and I experienced a fair amount of wheel hop on that run. That wheel hop hurt my 60' foot times on that run, and notice the guys mopping up a spill. Yes, there was some junk on the track that hurt the launch as well. You could also hear the nice 2nd gear I laid down.
