Zero wait at scrutineering, maybe 10 pairs of cars max lining up in staging and a heap of cars doing solo runs because there was no car ready to fill the other lane at different times.12.197@118 with a 2.02?? 60' for meNo traction issues - flat to the floor the whole way if I get off the line clean.Slowly feeling my way to a good start - am narrowing the gap between too much and too little boost - one day I'll get a run where I nail it just right.Definitely found the "too much" boost point with a half track burnout :SWas up til about 4am with Don last night with us just chatting about the nights runs - I reckon the tossing of ideas back and forth, a bit of analysis of what we and our cars were doing and thinking about the differences we both experienced was at least as beneficial as any seat time we had. Will definitely be a bit more confident next meet with a new plan of attack. Edited 14/06/14 02:46 AM by raband Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How old is your battery? I find if I leave the aircon and lights off until it switches to gas it starts up a bit better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
