C, I have this rash that won't go away...
A couple quick notes from myself..
- What's with the props for taking an EVO to the track? It's a performance car -- go beat the hell outta it if you want to enjoy it. Props going to the track with a mini-van is having some cajones.
- Times weren't that good but I take it you don't race much so you'll see quite the increase or decrease in times for that matter as you practice.
Not that it's a good comparison but before I was tuned I had 272's and a turboback and was consistently 13.3-13.4 with a quick (13.1X) at or around 104-105 and 1.9X 60's cuz I was limping a launch at 4k.
The shifting thoughts are spot on 7200-7300 seems to be the sweet spot but you almost have to feel it. Also most stock tachs are off 200-300rpm up top so you really again have to feel it.
Good deal and it was cool meeting ya a couple weeks ago..
