TA vs me

i'd like to thank all the guys from last night, most fun i had in a while...well anyway...set up a race with a bolt on 6-speed TA we agreed to a 55 roll ( i obviously would have preferred higher, but i agreed) from a 55 roll he jumps out on me a good car or so and we take off, right as im about to hit boost, he runs into traffic, cuts in front of me, and i cut that race short.... this time we line up at 65 we take off and we are right next to each other, the whole time im thinking damn that thing is quick, i didnt look down at my speedo but im guessing at around 150-160 i started pulling away and had to cut in front to avoid traffic.... it was a great race any way you look at it....but im still perplexed as i was not to impressed with my results....i look at my laptop, and i had accidently kept a trial fuel map open, not the one i had dyno tuned....so, i was like DOH, well either way late that night when i get home i go look at my data logs, turns out i had peaked at 15 psi and was holding only 14 throughout that run....im thinking to myself this explains why my car didnt feel like it was pulling as hard as usual, earlier today jacked up my car and check out the new dumptube i put in yesterday, turns out the vacuum line from the wastegate was making contact with it and put a nice hole in it... so i was only able to run spring pressure ( 1 bar/ 14.5 psi ), well im gonna tend to my minor issues and hopefully i should be out again next weekend, i'd love to hang with you guys again and see if i can fare any better next time

Drew - I'll take a rematch, but unfortunately for you I won't be at the same power level as last time. So mod up...

Yeah...that was a run away video that should have never been out there. I have aplogized to Kevin repeatedly for that.
