Default Thanks

Thanks for that, I'll save the trip. My helmet should arrive this week, hopefully it fits.

Car is nearly ready; ordered new injectors for it so I can get the part-throttle to behave...the 160lb/hr squirters are just not controllable at such a small idle/cruise pulsewidth. But at WOT they work. Short-pull shows 600/600 to the tires at 5K with only 16deg total, and tuned 1.5 AFRs rich; and at 5K it hasn't even reached peak torque yet. It was a long day of trying to make a firehose fill a wine glass...but at least now I know it can't be done that way...and that when I get the right injectors, it's only going to make more. I'm going to be spending the track day at 1/4 throttle LOL.

Getting excited about the event now; looks like I'll have it tuned by then...was getting worried. Next weekend I'll have the injectors and will give it another shot on the dyno. If it tunes, then I'm ready to go.
