yesterday i ran again and its a TINY bit faster even though i couldnt get much boost built for launch...still troubleshooting that.

sdr scale said an even 4000# (2 tons of fun)
boost was 12 psi
launched at 2800...2psi

60' 1.57
330' 4.191
660' 6.347 @ 113.60
1000' 8.221
1320' 9.817 @ 141.15

best part is i drove it home again. If i gotta take the converter out for a restall, that will have to wait. Its almost 'vert weather!!!
