Sounds like a nice day at the track. I suspect your BSR will soon be in 1:36 territory.
Tank is still vented using the stock system in order to pass emissions test and remain street legal. Agree that lack of vent could create a vacuum and result in symptoms that I am seeing. Will investigate.

BTW: Goal is to get into the 1:34's.
