Congrats but......

Gas: Pump
I thought you basically removed all the pump gas from your car at the track and added a blended mixture of 91 and 100+ octane?

No but there's lack of HP when not enough octane is used No sense in pinging down the track........

What...are you one of those guys that does all the little tricks and casually leaves them out when it comes to stating the actual work done on the car or otherwise minimizes what it took to get the car to get the posted result?
