1st time at the track after awd conversion

[500orbust]

I just finished the awd conversion on my gst and I took it to the track for the first time. Here are my results. SIR raceway Tucson, AZ

1st run - best time
12.5@115 , 2.1 60ft
@14 psi. spun through first and second gear, then blew ic pipe in foruth

2nd run
12.7@112, 2.0 60ft
@10 psi

last run
13.2@??? - computer malfunction
@10 psi. Lost my turbo in third gear, the turbo was locked

This was on street tires and pump gas. I need to relearn how to drive, especially the 1 - 2 shift. It seemed like it takes me about a half a second.

Sounded like a rough day? Other than the problems you had, how are you enjoying the AWD?

AWD's great, and it feels more solid than the fwd ever did....If that makes sense. I need a lot more practice on the 1 to 2 shift though. First gear goes by a lot faster now.
