Still needs more timing.

My guess is 2* to get a good mark on the strap and 3* will be an agressive 1/8th mile tune up.

With no heat on the strap it would go thru the 1/4 on that tune up with no problems. We planned on doing that last night but the track got cold, we spun the tires hard and I didnt catch it fast enough, it back fired when it hit the rev limiter and blew our "bolt-on" scoop off.
