Hey I got 163.77 RWP in 3rd gear at 7,200 RPM before the DSC kicked in.

Is that any good? The temp was high at 78.26F, 34% Humidity

They never got over 7,200RPM before the ECU kicked in to shut down the car from the front wheels not moving.

M flash 18,900 miles

Wouldn't a 4th or 5th gear run been better? Do you think at peak power of 8,500rpm or more I would end up with 180RWP or more?

You are supposed to turn off DSC until the little skidding car shows up. That way you won't have the problems you mentioned. You will continue to climb in HP after 7200.
