Are you inferring that AK doesn't have these skills? Obviously he does as he has ran a great time and trap prior to this, he beat my ET which was the WR for a decent amount of time, of course in much better air, but obviously he is more than capable and knows what he's doing. If you understand these cars, you would know that DCT does not require that much skill to get a decent trap speed.

I didn't boast about it, I simply pointed out objectively that it slightly out trapped or matched your best kit, and most conspicuous car. Don't you think it's more impressive when a lower rated kit out performs the higher rated kit and not the other way around? Never whined about it either, don't put words in people's mouths and spin things Andrew, try being objective it will better suite you. I didn't loose it's not my car, unlike YOU I have no skin in this tuner game and as I said I had no problem with the result, it was expected. If you remember you agreed with me that starting in the wrong gear will affect that outcome, if you consider that "whining" then there's no point of having a conversation with you about this.

More than one VT535 has put down that power, they should raise the power level on that kit. Regardless it's not that impressive when a companies highest rated kit and most talked about car beats a the lowest rated kit of it's compete ors on the street, starting in the wrong gear, lol, but it is impressive when the lower rated kit outperforms it in the 1/4 mile trap speed wise. I'd say the objective folks here understand that.
