there was a combo of things working against me... cold night and the dew set on the track (you can see the dew on the Formula)... A car had puked its motor all over the big end of the track a couple hours earlier.... the car that blew up was running antifreeze instead of water which is very difficult to clean up.... turnout was low and and due to the lack of cars running, the lanes were cold.... I make a LOT of HP when I click to HI boost in 3rd gear.

sucks when crap gets on the track. on a side note, i want to ask about the click to high boost. guessing you have a steering wheel mounted remote switch. what type do you have? how was it to install it? i have a buddy that really needs one of those. he has NO traction out off the line in high boost.

I have a Greddy Profec B Spec II with the optional remote switch. The remote switch is super easy to install. You plug the reciever into the back of the Profec and mount it somwhere under the dash. Then just strap the remote to the steering wheel and your done.
