Default Paging NoGo, WTF?

During all my tuning I have seen 15-18 deg. of timing. Last night I went to the track to beat my best time. The truck felt really lazy going down the track, so much so that I thought something was wrong. I ran a 8.3, I run a 8.4 on the motor. Looking at my Tech 2 I saw it had 10 deg. of timing, all the way down the track. I also saw that the O2s were reading 970 to 980, they read 900 to 920 at 11.5 with the wideband. I did not have the wideband last night. Going down the return road I decked it and it showed 18 deg.
Is there some sort of abuse mode when starting from a dead stop? I have no clue what went wrong? I went fown the track 3 times and all 3 times it did this.
Cruising down the highway on the way home I hammered it. It almost didn't spin the tires at only 45mph? I figured that the temp might have something to do with it but, with only a 30 deg. difference? I have crap to do all damn weekend and this is going to drive me crazy until Monday.

I'm not NOGO but it sounds like your computer went into the low octain table at the track.

I have my Low Octane Table set at 1.6 deg. at the rpm I run at. I also read no knock retard at all. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Hello,

Did you change your MAP/IAT timing adjustment table to 0 for all points? On your truck it pulls a significant amount timing of for hotter air temperatures.

I changed my entire MAP/IAT map to 0. I am sure I changed this after your suggestion. I will look when I get back tonight.

Have you zeroed out your torque reduction as well.

Go to transmission -> A4 Shift Firmness -> Torque reduction and zero out the
table
Trans Cal -> A4 Shift Firmness -> Upshift Torque reduction - zero out the
values
Engine -> Ignition -> Max Torque. Set it to 600
Engine -> Ignition -> Torque Reduction. Zero it out

I have just zeroed out the trans tables, the engine I have already done. I will try this at the track Wed. I hope this helps. I don't understand why it happens at the strip and not the road. Engine under a greater load with the sticky tires?
Another question I have for you is about the running rich at startup. If I jack with the Crank VE do you think that this will help? I can actually smell gas during the first 2 min. of warmup.
Man thanks for the help.
