Let's see, first of all I don't auto-cross much, I road race and I have tuned plenty of "record-holding" drag cars too - the World's Fastest stock ej205, stock tranny, WRX that runs consistent sub 11.8's at over 120mph. *AND* has done so for nearly 100,000 miles on my tune. I also tuned the first vf-39 93 octane STi to go 12.2 at 112 (there have been more since, but I did one in 2004).

For the record, you can be MORE aggressive with an auto-x tune than a drag tune because it only has to be safe in 1st-3rd and can be "too aggressive" to run in 4th. I also have tuned a national championship auto-x car.

I can certainly make a "drag" only map that makes full power for one pass with a nice cool engine bay. However, if people don't ask for that they get a tune that should run problem free no matter what they want to do with the car.

And finally, as far as I know, there was ONE person who I tuned recently who got retuned by Gadiel, and he contacted me yesterday about me retuning it again.

Concord, what is your point here?
