This was the 9th run ever on the car and it’s been giving us fits. It left extremely lazy and I figured no way it was going fast enough to worry. Unfortunately or fortunately, it seems maybe we fixed the problem we were having in the car and it went faster than I thought. The combination has TONS of untapped potential left so from my standpoint I’m not upset about it because I know we have more left in it, I didn’t intend to ruin it for others or anything like that, but sometimes it happens. Considering it’s been hit with 33hp before I ever touched it I’m definitely not the first one to hit it...lol

I guess if the 'tune up' was this lame then maybe this combo can stand an additional 25 HP on top of the HP added by the 1.20 under.

It’s definitely got a lot of potential from my standpoint. This combination has been run by others since 2014 so it’s not like I just grabbed some new untouched combination. It’s been factored 33hp before I ever touched it. It’s definitly a different animal than some others. I’ve personally been battling the car more than anything and hopefully get it all lined out soon.
