What do you trap now? Do you run at PIR?
They will notice.....

Do you plan a dry or wet setup?

A 150 shot on my Nova picked up 12mph. Not the most aero car in the world, and I didn't know at the time I was losing the 2nd gear clutches in the T400.
If I tried it now, I'd likely crash the car given the poor track conditions at PIR. The worst in history there.
And they WILL notice a 135+ mph run....it's a game with them.

I say do it! But be careful.

Ron
