Outstanding run either way

Good job.

The air was good. Nothing to excuse your good ET though. Not like a dry 600' da.

you are right for Fontana this is pretty good air. its is pretty common two see well over 4000 ft. but with my N/A Motor IT could have better. hoping to get up to Bakersfleid . which will be at least a tenth or 2 better..

Look at every little thing in that car. I'm sure that there is a few pounds of lard that can be trimmed off.
Though taking weight off in crucial areas at this point may disrupt the package if things have to be removed and replaced that take up time, I would look at things that can be removed at a moments notice and replaced quickly.
It's at good manageable weight now though.
