Take heart, man. You're within .30 of the index with a car you built yourself having no experience with the brand. That's nothing to be ashamed of.

You also identified problems with A/F and rear end bind, which once fixed will almost surely bring you under the index. You need to watch what the converter is doing and figure shift points. Got a playback tach? Also, did you scale the car?

While not .80 under first time out as most new cars aren't, you'll probably be 30-.50 by the end of the month if you bring it out every weekend and keep working it one change at a time.

I was wondering about how things went all day and pretty sure others have too. I think you did pretty good.
