I know y?all don?t wanna give away any secrets but any insight into direction would be appreciated. I?m literally down to deciding wether the air in the engine compartment is causing issues
With my big heavy wagon, wind is a huge factor as well as time between runs. My car is a tenth quicker on a hot lap and a change from a tail wind to a head wind can be worth as much as a tenth too.
