Yeah, good point. Running higher octane can be detrimental to power if not tuned for it.
I dont care so much...just think of it as friendly competition since our cars put down similar numbers?

They don't have them here this next weekend. I am driving down to SF to see the Raider vs 49'er pre season game this weekend. Are they having drags @ Infineon? The next race in Eureka is the 23rd and I will be present for my 12 second slip!

10smebbin (aka 107)
Look, i know I can get faster.
These are all excuses but here are my reasons for not having the most optimal of times. First I want to caveat this with, "I had a blast this weekend racing!". Man the weather was perfect (Sunny and 70 degrees). I am very happy with my toon and the car feels great. That being said;
It's a new setup for me (blow through and FMIC),, it just drives different.
I have a new clutch, this is two fold. I had never launched this clutch until sat night. I did prolly 4 runs that night and the same on Sunday. 8 runs. I was being easy with the clutch tranny as I put it back together and the trust is still being built in this relationship
I am tunning my AVCR. It was setup but not tuned when I got my 100ct. Mike said the tunnign was up to me. Derek taught me how to mess with it correctly and I am dialing it in. I am not one to change setings in big amounts. I give 2-3% more each run in the appropriate gears and see how it does by recording my run on my Dephi. It's almost dialed but I am assuming once I can source some 100ct I will have to "re-tune" it.
I was running on the wrong oct and probably lost a little hp and tq.
I am not 150lbs
I am confident with practice I will be where I want to be with this setup (mid 12's) by the end of the season if not next race!

Definately better to run a mix of 91 and Maximal for your 100 octane tune but best idea is to run exactly what you were tuned for. If you were tuned for 100 oct unleaded 104 unleaded is a good subsititue also.
Did you finally get your avcr fixed? If you did, I would try to tweak it a little and you will for sure break into the 12's.
