It's that simple, and never got farther then this ****, ever..

If you are serious about racing you'd drive it out to Memphis..since you claim it to be a daily driver then there should be no problems?

I'l be posting up timeslips tomorrow..what will you be posting besides excuses and junk?
I'm done cause it's simple... You're scared to run me on the street!

Got together with Merv tonight and we made a few pulls since he got his ls1 transplant done. The Lil s10 rolls out! Traction on the street is a no go below 40, from a 40 punch ittl dead hook though. We ran once from a dig and 2 times from 40-130. I only have the dig run and the first roll race.

WARNING....vids are dark, where we have to run is very dark, sorry in advance.

S10 has ls1 with a hotcam, 2000 converter, 3.42's, supporting mods like exhaust lt's..etc.

Camaro is L99 with a full tune. Otherwise stock.

The dig was lopsided due to lack of traction on the s10, but from 40-130, dead nuts even.

That is completely opposite of what I said.

Not nitpicking here, just trying to communicate my point.

You are saying copy the correction from the main table, to the secondary table.

I'm saying apply the correction from the PRIMARY table histogram to the PRIMARY table only.

Then, apply changes from the SECONDARY histogram to the SECONDARY table only.

Big difference.

The main table might take a 16% correction, and the secondary may take a 3% correction.

You copy a 16% correction to both, and it's never going to be right.

and BTW I know theres no set % correction for the entire table, the histogram breaks it down per cell. It's just an example.

Those aren't videos, they are audio clips with an image! Nice run.

No reason to apologize, it looks like most places people street race. If there were lots of lights it probably wouldn't be a good place. I mean that's the theory anyway.
