When I was running it all the time I ran 6.1's on motor out at Lakeland and I have never made a full pass on the spray. That was about 2-3 years ago and it has only been sprayed about 4 times total the last time I had it to the track I think the best it ran was a 6.4, I have only run it about 2 times in the past 2 years hell I have only ridden it about 7-8 times in the past 2 years and have not ridden it but twice in the past 8 months now. Time to get it out and blow the dust off.

Looks like Saturday for the track!
I did get my bottle filled today. Hopefully I don't work late on Saturday. We need to plan a trip to Bradenton. I want to see what it will do on the second half of the track.
