We need a new "instant" trigger!

The second problem is that the corrective action is too small or not often enough. If a car runs 1.4 under firstly you must determine if it is due to outside forces, like AIR? When I say air I am talking about barometer, temperature, and humidity. (I ran on a 100% humidity day at Indy and that was unbelievable)

Fix it? Run a curve of an engine combo and compare those "like" engines to an average. Correct all runs like we do on our weather stations. Then we must increase the correction factor from 4HP to a much larger number.

Very true the correction should bring the 1.4 car to at least the 1.15 triger. with the current system that is not possible.
