In third, it I would get some turbo lag but it kept the car from lighting the tires up on corner exit.

No PCA events planned right now. We are doing the NASA event at Buttonwillow April 21-22.
That is a very busy weekend. PCA at Fontana, POC at WSIR, and NASA at BW. It's a shame these guys couldn't coordinate their event schedules better this year. Personally I think BW and Chuckwalla are better Test-N-Tune tracks when you have unknowns to uncover. I don't really like surprises at 135 mph in turn 2 at Fontana... spook city!

Keep working out those little details with the car. I think you have a winner once everything is sorted.
