I’m trying to make sure weather doesn’t matter

My car runs 12.8Xs, and does it so consistently (to the thousandths) that I should enter it into a bracket race. Its a $30 entry for the hat race. It's just to have fun. IDGAF if I get gapped.

We should run. It would probably be an awesome door the door video
The last rental I ran 12.8

I did just toss on 3bar maps and up boost from 20 to 23 but we should be the closest run considering the beasts that show up

That was on a street tire and I'll be on a slick for the event, but we will see if that helps at all. I'd be down if its still in that range.

Bike is ready.

Wanted to go up two teeth in the back to get out of the hole and accelerate faster, but didn’t have enough rear axle travel. Chain was rigid, no slack. Didn’t feel like breaking the front gear loose to drop it a tooth to give me the slack I needed. So, with some luck, I’ll be marginally faster than last year with one up in the back.

FYI, that's only 600cc's (0.6L / 36.6 cu in) of mild fury making about 110hp, so don't expect to see it ripping 9's and 10's. Stock gearing put it in low 11's, so hoping to maybe get a sniff of a 10.9 or 11.0 as long as the weather is good and there's no headwind.
