No faster times tonight but they were all better than my best from last year. Thanks a ton to Rich for his advice with adding a little corn , tire pressures and such. Car 505 was Dennis (Snaf2u) in his 2013 PP with LME V8 tune with 2 bar. Here are the rest of my slips. I beat a tuned 300z twin turbo and then got spanked by an older Nova running slicks. DA was about 1200 tonight and we had a 5-10 MPH wind out of the NW (track runs due north).

Good times, Don!  Nice video too, always enjoy watching those older racers kick up their legs like horses ;)  BUT it also struck me how QUIET the SHO was in comparison.  No fuss, no muss.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Dennis and I were talking about that. There were a few that were pretty loud and yet slower than us. Goes to show you don't have to make that much noise to go fast.

Sometimes you think you should enter those cars into a decibel contest in an audio show!  No question they'd take the prize :D

It was a fun night for sure. Dennis got his PB as well, went from a 12.81 to a 12.79. I had almost 2/3 of a tank of gas so I may get a little quicker with better planning with how much gas I have in the car. There were even a couple of 7 second cars there last night, so crazy to see those thing rip down the track.

Great stuff Don. I think you've got a 12.4 in her too. Still a little meat on the bone with the 60'.

Congrats, can't wait to see you in a couple weeks at Milan.

Don, great times!  Were you running the modified 1-2 shift pressure?

I have the 4X plus which does have the modified 1-2 shift. I still had a little bit of shudder on the shift for 2 of the runs though.

Nice runs all evening Don. We both had some wheelspin although the track did look good. Even with just the 2 bar I spun if i I launched above 1700 rpm. I have the PP so I have a small gear ratio advantage on Don but the 3-bar he has more than negates that. I guess I will have to put the 3-bar on mine also. Good time Don and we`ll do it again.

Nope. Just a pure tune only car. It is a lease and has 1 year left. If I decide to buy it .....well something might happen then. Possibly a 3-bar soon though..
