Day-um! Nice car and nice driving! Basically a straight 3L with a TwEECer you say? I may have to go start running my CSVT hard around in right hand circles on a skidpad to be able to justify to The Wife the need for a new motor!
Then again, with this many miles on it and the way I fully utilize it's potential on a daily basis (some may say abuse it) I think this motor may never die...

Did you get this on video perhaps?
Congrats!
I don't know how much my car weighs. I do know it weigh a good 125lbs less then when I got it.
An educated guess would put it about 2925 at race weight (I.E. minus spare/jack/baby seat/etc)
My shifting powerband is roughly 4500-7300 rpm.
I got my best 60' and 330 times by shifting to 2nd very early because there is NO wheel hop, just spin at WOT in 2nd. 
After that I used about 7300 as a shift point. That's about 6700rpm on the stock tach 
I shift by ear and the S-AFC tells me it's 7300ish. It's really quite an outstanding gauge pack. Which brings me to another thing I figured out but I'll tell you all later when it's 100%.
Yes my patented (4006741971) air shifter technique shifts very quickly when the cables let you. That's one thing I think the early models have there. I bet the damn shifter rods don't "stretch" when you shift quickly. 
If I had those I suppose I'd be needing chrome moly shifter rods then.

Gives me hope. Hmm, small turbo and tranny work. I would be well into 13s or better with my race weight of ~2700lbs. And with the CF hood on its way, this weight is only gonna keep dropping.

I will admit I could not have asked for better weather. It was mid to upper 50's and humidity in the 60's. That's a blue moon around here.
The track is much better since they resurfaced the entire thing. No more side to side high speed dodging.
It is actually LEVEL too!!!
You don't roll back out of the lights either.

Awesome times man.
You know, its funny. Someone actually let the cat out of the bag on another forum while defending our cars. (DaveB, you get mad respect in my book.)
He mentioned in passing about the 3L and I thought, gee, this cat doesn't know what he's talking about. I guess he did.
