Yeah my car is running but not up to it's potential I think. I believe I have an exhaust leak from my O2 housing & I'm misfiring in high rpms which shouldn't be happening. Probably pulling timing somewhere. I wasn't able to confirm that because I couldn't get my laptop to hook up to the AEM (which was an easy fix when I got home, of course).

Hopefully, some of those chances posted above will change and more people will come. At any rate, I should be able to make it. I have something to attend at 4 in Sumter, but I should be able to make it to the track by 7.

Dennis was driving of course. So close to the 6's!

I'm going to do my best to make it to Darlington on July 18th but I have a prior commitment earlier in the day. If no senoritas fall in my lap at said prior commitment I will most certainly make the trip. I do so want to get a 10 second 1/4 mile out of this little beastie!
Nice job you have a built engine time to tune it for more boost.

I've only had it touched up for safety purposes since going to the Red. I'm fairly certain something else is going on. I'm still running 29-30 lbs of boost too. I didn't bother to turn it up. I'm also not tuned on 93 yet. I'll have it sorted out by the Shootout in August hopefully.

Bro, with you behind the wheel, I'm sure it'll be just fine! I can imagine what David's car feels like now. I'm hoping to get a call from Dan at BR to find out when he can look at my car for some work. Watch them call the week before or of July 18th. Are you gonna come up to Darlington on 7/18? If so, I'll definitely hand you the keys!

You're more than welcome to come help me remove wallpaper from my kitchen if you'd like..
