RE71s, 33 cold, 37 hot. 235-40-18 square. Xdrive 8AT. Sport+ in manual mode, shifted to 2nd and left it there. I found that the car shifting for itself was way too abrupt and it always did it at the worst possible times. I have taken it to three autocross events and two track days. I am pretty much in love with this car and I think it is doing amazing. I’m coming from Mini and I’m still trying to get a feel for this car, but I think it is already doing great . I learned very quickly that you do not touch the gas in the corner on this car! It always seems to be in its power band, no waiting for boost. Takes off from the line like a bullet. I feel like it’s just the right amount of power. We see people come in with 700 hp cars and it always looks like a struggle to control and you only need about a third of that power.
