my tl - traction pwned
i know this isnt racing.. I was gonna show u guys a 0-60 vid in my car. But since i am on street tires i figure its not gonna work. So instead i went up to 20 and just show u how bad my traction problem for first and second gear is. I try to let off and get back on but its the same

You're pushing a 100 shot in first gear, no street tire will be able to hold traction. I don't think you should spray in first anyway.

Unless you're stock spray in third 1st and 2nd gear are both too short.
