Default Taking the CTD to the track today

Yup, thats right, im gonna see what it runs with my Edge COMP on it today. Im going to try some diff runs on diff settings and also 1 run with the MAP unplugged just to see what happens if anything. I will be shifting slower than usual through the gears however as something is causing a grind into 3rd and 4th from and up or downshift into either of the gears. I have full intentions on videoing my runs, however i am not guaranteeing it as i do not personally have a camera accessible to use.

Anyway, wish me luck and wish me no broken parts or fried clutch!

the track i run at is Cedar Falls Raceway about an hour from me.

I didnt do too bad last night. They using some instant green BS on the tree which gives me no time to get ready to launch

On my first run i tried it in 2H and launched at around 2k, i spun HARD on that launch and just kinda sat in one place spinning till i grabbed 3rd, that was a crappy run of 19.1 @ 80 or 81 MPH

Second run i locked it in 4H and launched nice ran a 17.1 at maybe 79 or 80.

Last run i rolled a lil past the staging lanes so i backed up and that SOB tree went green almost before i got it back in 2nd gear so i dropped the clutch and forgot to rev it up and almost kiilled it, it bucked and banged a couple times then away i went. Ran an 18.? at ?? MPH and made a fool of myself. However, last year stock i ran 18.40s consistantly so i better my time with the edge comp by 1.3 seconds so far. Im sure i could prolly get it to dip into the 16s with a new air filter and possibly taking out my diamond plate toolbox.
