Clint works weeknights so we are only able to go Sundays. As long as it doesnt rain we will be there sunday, hope to see you out there, last chance before they close up for Christmas/New Year break.
1.50's on DR's.. That's SICK!
Personally - I'd throw that MAFT away.. I had nightmares keeping my a/f right back before edit. With Chris R's tune I wouldn't change anything a/f-wise.
Was it Colonel that said the oil sucked into the intake can cause detonation? Might have a point there - my car blows a little blue smoke every now and then and I hear pinging sometimes as well. Only on the drivers side - and that side runs a little leaner most of the time too. Slow O2 sensor may be the culprit too - who knows.
The humidity certainly didn't help you. It kills my car's mix and mph.
Congrats on the new best and you're flying for sure! Stick with the DR's and work on the tune.

well clint took my car to work today, changed the oil (Mobil 1 15W50), put our little home made PCV system back on till we can scrouge up some money for the Greddy catch can, cleaned the injectors & TB trying to clean all the oil out. Will post new results after this weekend.

I installed a air compressor filter in my pcv system after trapping at low speeds (off by about 2 mph). Went to the track the next week and my speeds were back to where the should have been with a worse DA.

congrats Lynda
I see the car has some great potential and is still moving really well as it is. My feeling would be as mentioned earlier that the oil is knocking the octane down and causing KR. I would really get that straight and put tr55 back in it for N/A
I can see the car picking up after you resolve a few issues
good luck
