RE: Latest G-Tech runs

Funny you should mention it.  Two nights ago I was driving back home in a
friends car.  FWD Dodge colt.  DId pretty well.  Studded tires.  Started
slipping up a hill.  So I stopped to see if it would get going
again. (3:00 am,  NO one out on this small road)  Well, it moved sideways
nicely.  I got it going by applying the brake but barely.  So I grabbed
the 4ktq and went back.  
	Heh...Floored it, no wheelspin till the boost came in.  Then it
lit them up but man, what a difference.  I could barely walk on the stuff
and was getting a 0-60 (never hit 60, to slick) but if I had it would have
been maybe 12 seconds???  Maybe a bit longer but not bad.  
	BTW...with Hakka's up front and no Namers in back, it REALLY likes
to Power on Oversteer when the boost comes on.  Have to be careful i the
corners.  :-)    (I got the wheels with those tires on.  Dont have money
to buy two more.)

I was curious to see what my 87 5kcsq would do 0-60 in with 1.8 bar in the
rain.  I recently did a 5.8 in the dry.

I made a few runs and got a 6.19 and 6.20.  I was amazed at the
traction. I
did this with 195/65/15 Hakka 10's.  I can only think of one car that can
out-do that is the 930 Turbo All Wheel Drive.  I cannot believe the power
increase from raising the boost!  I am going to try it in the snow as soon
as I get a chance.  The snow is a bit late this year in ME.  I predict an
8.5 on a snow covered road!?
