Yeah but my friend has a stock M4 and complains that he spins through 3rd gear. I think a large part of it is their cars come with extra camber and other things that prioritize cornering over straightline speed, but that's just ridiculous.

That's why I say we must have different definitions. Because I'm also running OTS stage 1 e30 with no torque reduction and putting the power down just fine.

Honestly coming from fwd, my limit is not being able to hook 2nd gear. Spinning was fun but I'm currently addicted to the feel of no drama acceleration. If i start having trouble holding traction, trust me. I'd be honest and dial something back. But that's just not the case.
