Trying to work tune in. New best mph and et but tires were worn and werent holding launches. Had to leave slow with a 1.50 60'

Not bad for 3800 lbs. 26 psi but think its still slightly rich.

That looked too easy, kind of looked like you were making a 14second pass (and the guy in the other lane was going for 30seconds ;-) )

It was all top end lol had to leave soft or else go up in smoke.

Got a fuel pressure issue now tho, its dropping up top. Need to up my line size and try to drop pressure at base setting if i can.
