ACG did the tune. If the SC C63 made a pull it was after I left around 2:30. I think they were done though.

Denroll,

Was this just dyno runs, or we're they doing tuning as well?

Do you have a plan for some tuning now that you've got a baseline established? It seems like there's plenty of HP hiding in a new tune even if you don't throw any more hard parts at it...

Since Bramage is grounded for being naughty, I am supposed to let you all know his results. Apparently the thought of going up against my car left him a little intimidated. He conveniently left his drag radials at home and then coated his rear tires in Astro-glide. Someone said they saw him in the corner of the parking lot doing that. The tube was right there in the back seat.

When it was his turn for the dyno run, all he could do was spin on the rollers, so I won by default.

This concludes Bramage's 100% true story.

He's still around here in SD. I think he got fed up with a lot of the drama and placed out for a while.

Family commitments have kept him from the last 3 races, so I haven't got to run him since I got my drag wheels and tires.
