Default finally got some bugs worked out and hit the track.

Got back out today and got 2 passes in. Still leaving on footbrake with no boost since i've had a lot of traction problems before just didnt want to take a chance of wasting a pass where i blow the tires off.

1.5160ft
6.15@117 1/8th
short shifted 2nd and third a little bit, had to hit the brakes hard since i have no cage.
1.522 60ft
6.09@118mph 1/8th
9.48@144 1/4
was kinda hot today so i think i'm going to hit the track one more last time this year in few weeks at the best track around i havent been to yet this year and it should be in the 40s or even colder at night instead of damn near 80degrees today. I even might try out a little smaller pulley
