I went back to the track yesterday to give it another try.
I lowered my timing 2* and upped the jets 1 size to see what would happen, It ran the same ET but the MPH picked up to 132.90.
Each round I was trying to learn more about my Racepak and how to use it when I heard on the PA that I had a bye to the finals
I got lucky and won

Car is light compared to most on here. But, that said no harder than you turn it she's carrying the mail.

Was ready to bet some real $$ it was not a 59 degree.

Good job on the win

Tonight we had a little cooler weather(mid 70's) so I added a little bigger jets and netted another new best ET on one pass then a new MPH on another.

It went a 5.1737 and 133.18, I'm very pleased with it's performance so far
