Hello, fabulous thread.
As an aside, I'm curious about the 60-130 test. Speaking of gearing and standardization, how does one conduct the 60-130?
For example, is this all in one gear? Or, do you start in 3rd and upshift? Presumably the flattest road possible? Is the test moot if your gearing has been changed and apples are thereby no longer being compared? Etc?
Cheers

Well, after numerous discussions, I decided to go with the Protomotive kit. Maybe part of the decision was to be a bit different from the pack, who knows. But I'll make everyone a deal. When it is finished, I'll drive (trailer if needed) my car to the nearest willing GT700 to the Cleveland Ohio area and we'll film a couple 2nd and 3rd gear roll-ons so we can all put to rest which car pulls harder under the same conditions. Not that honestly it's all that big of a deal as they should be awfully close, but just to compare the approaches. In return, I just want to know why a moderator changed my title? I’ll even accept a pm.
Thanks everyone for the help!

I would also like to know why "titles" are being changed by these moderators! There was no reason to change his thread, why dont one of you "moderators" chime in and explain!

Thanks everyone. We have plenty of time to plan for this mini-GTG, but let's meet up next spring...I'll let you guys decide where. I don't know Buddy, but if he's anywhere close to Mid-Ohio, it will be a no-brainer to meet down there.
Alex, thanks for the heads-up on the Protomotive thing. I skimmed through that long post and I now understand....not sure I agree....but I understand. Todd @ EVOMS can thank me for the extra advertising I provided him when the mods just left in EVOMS....
