Peak numbers won't be as high as a mildly modded S2. But I develop my peaks much lower down.

Was your hood not latched? Or are you torquing your chassis?

Hood wasn't latched. We'd been out doing some heat-soak testing. I popped it to take out the rags I stuffed in my cooling ducts.

Spool to 2500rpm'*, then dump. No ebrake as mentioned. I don't like doing that when traction is so good. It puts ALOT of stress on the drivetrain (differential).
