Hot off the highway it ran a 14.7 and with a cooldown and better launch I went a 14.2 the same day. |
Hot and pretty busy, but if we're spared afternoon thunderstorms this Sunday, I'll head back out to Steele. With the new tune by John @ APF, I picked up about 20/20 under the curve. That should see noticeable gains at the track.
Usually, when I arrive at the track straight off the highway (with time only for a bathroom break), I will have my best run of the day or not improve on it much (unless I make significant changes).
I can run back-to-back with 10-15 minutes between runs and stay easily within a tenth. Long waits do not show me significant improvements.
I added a 160* thermostat, and while it occasionally shows 180* on the highway, I have not seen improvement in the lanes and I have seen some inconsistent fluctuations in temps (e.g. jumping from 190* to 215* back to 198* in a short time). But most of my runs are 194* ECT.
I have ordered an ADM Race Scoop, and if it arrives this week, I'll be testing it out Sunday.
I also have another "secret" mod I want to try out this weekend. "Secret" because I'm embarrassed to admit I'm actually trying it.
But I can, so I will, and it should add fuel to a common debate.
