Looking at Joe stats don't really tell the story about how fast all the combo's are. Some will run their stuff hard while others try to protect their combo. The guy on the West Coast likes to be number one and runs the 350/255 combo. I still think Indy is a better indicator but not a perfect one. Several there try to win the eliminator and don't really care if they win class.

How far under can the other person that runs your combo go?
Would your combo been able to HP off if you requested it?
If you had someone give you 20 grand to spend on the car how much faster could you get it to go? Just curious.
We are only .10 apart
No, Both cars with the engine combo ran the Sportsnationals and Indy.
As happy as I am with how it runs, there is definitly more to gain, 20 grand would pick me up alot, It will get there, just a little at a time, not all at once. especially with 2 kids in college and a son that races lol.
