I daily drove on E85 for almost 2 years. Not seeing the issue here... .

Part of this is grip on nearly 2 yr old tires. Part of this not being used to the power in the car/setup.




most of this is me sucking ***...

Roughly about 200-230 or so.

Now my commute is about 300-325. I have my Forester for daily driving, but I'll still take the STI from time to time.

Apetron is also there in the mix

Great little battle going on
They will be 2 years old this July...

They are about 7/10th of a second off from fresh. maybe more. They have been outside the entire time.

The car pushes really easily, I can't easily peg the gas and turn at the same time.
