my goal for this summer (i'm setting it low) is to do at least one HPDE. i just need to get on pump gas for it. i'd like a solid tune for it since i'm **** about having piece of mind about hurting something.

Especially when your out flogging your car like never before for 30min at a time. After I ran Monticello, my oil smelled like straight up 93. I probably could have ran it in my tank.

traction sucked at atco. couldn't manage better than a mid 1.8 - 60'. the car would either wheel hop or the back end would come around. the wheel hop might have something to do with my suspension settings, but I wasn't about to mess with it.

nothing special in the ET department. My best passes were the first two, went 12.1 @ 117 & another 12.1 @ 115. so thats a tenth slower in the ET department but 2-4 MPH faster overall. That was with 22psi peak and straight 93 octane. Not bad for spending about 45 minutes on the toon, lol.

That's a descent time Marc. I did a 12.1@113 with a basically stock car with an aggressive tune.
