Bit of a report here.

We got to go out to Wild Horse tonight, after a brief shower back at home.

Some of you guys are gonna laugh, but the humidity was an exceptionally high 37 to 43 % .
It was only in the high 80's ,but the ODA was still around 4000'.

We tried three different staging rpm's but it did run the best ever 60' , leaving at 2500. Anything over that and it wants to wring the tires off it.
I think the adjustable struts did help a bit.

The raised line pressure did make the trans shift like it should now, so we're happy with that .
All three runs were between 1.18 and 1.28 under, and I think this may be the last ET report for this project. We'll be seeing some of you guys in Combo Class before long, I'm sure.
