If your within 250ish miles, fight them on it! I did it with my lp when i was over by 300 and won it. Worth a shot...

my tach is a little choppy. not really noticeable but if you look at it while I'm accelerating you can see it jump up each 100 rpm. don't know if this means something is going out or if its normal.
