If the 100 octane tune sensed knock it would fall back to the 93 and pull timing. Couldn't get the 100 tune to run right unless I used race gas. Do you plan to run that fuel on a 200+ shot?

Thanks. I hope to be racing at Atco next month. The car is currently at radical racing being finished. That's a stones throw from the track.

Well just downloaded Atcos 2015 schedule and looks like things won't be ready there to mid march. Craig at radical told me the car will be running next Friday at the latest.
