I'm wondering with better weather, what you can pull off. What temperature and humidty were you dealing with? Also, what elevation were you at.

Thanks! And, congrats to you! King of the hill!!

It doesn't say the temperature and humidity on the timeslips. Checking weather.com, it was about 75 degrees with 41% humidity last night. On my two previous track experiences, it was shivering cold out. We're surrounded by rivers here in Portland, so we're not far above sea level.

Any thoughts on what it would take to get me into the 14.6's?

Hey Happy B-day Kid! You have a ways to go to catch up to us "old timers". If you're not getting too full of yourself with all this track experience, me and my Central Oregon buddy's are bring our Stangs up to PIR for Open Track Sept. 7&8th. It'd be cool to say "Hi" and chase you around the track! See if it'll work.

Cayuse.... I'll see if I can make it! If it's anything like your previous experience, I'm in!

Nope... it's not bad... and the computer tune pretty much isn't going to let you do anything that hurts your engine.

Yup! Hopefully, before Hamid and I meet for "open track" in September B&M Racing will have put into production their new auto-shifter for transmission.... Oh yeah!
