just one run didn't want to push it yet just shy of 1200.
I didn't brake torque I just slammed the pedal, the TC held while the engine reved up to about 2700- 2900 and then the car took off. The G's have always loved cold air. My 03 G35 coupe would perform night and day difference in cold air vs warm air- more of a dramatic difference than other cars that I have owned.

Hmmm, someone figure out how to connect the air intake tube to the A/C ... well will need a long air intake tube to notice any effect lol.

Just slammed the pedal and let the torque converter do it's job (got very little wheel spin)
Used full manual mode and shifted 1-2 slightly into redline- actually that was driver error but apparently it didn't hurt and I got a nice kick in the butt shifting into second.
However I did have just shy of 30 miles of gas left. It gave the warning down the track. So that saved some weight.
