I don't think it got talked about, but after Eddie went the 7.98 at BG, he came back around and went a 7.97. So he DID back up his 7, plus he went 8.02 and 8.04. Obviously valvetrain issues cropped up and caused major issues, but the car was initially pretty fast and consistent on a conservative tune. I still say the tune in the car would likely go low .80s, high .70s with some work and you could really lean on it and go faster, depending on how the chassis responds.
