Default Radix Performance Update

After the Radix, of course, I have a HUGE traction problem.

My best 60' was 2.3 with a 5.1sec 0-60mph
I bettered my 60' with a 2.2 but my 0-60 went down to 5.8sec.
I was able to apply 345hp and 385tq, meaning this number is based on accelerometers and can only measure what was successfully put to the ground in the form of motion. I am severely traction limited as you can see.

I managed the better 60' very very gradually applying the gas, almost as if I was taking off normal, then I just ever so gently wicked that up, still got some wheel spin, but not near as much as instant 3/4 throttle(gas pedal).
As you can see, this bettered my 60' but really hurt my 0-60mph.

Anyway, thats how she goes
