Better air might help, but you can't hold out for that, based on my experience at Moroso. You're at the perfect altitude and humidity is your biggest enemy. There are few days with low humidity in WPB. There was a time they printed humidity on the timeslips, but I haven't seen that in years. Of course, I haven't raced at Moroso in a long time either.
in retrospect you might be right .4 is alot, I know when I did the mod it made a suprisingly big difference

I dont understand how humidity plays a role. I understand "heat", but how does humidity come into play. Engines dont react to a "heat index" do they? I am not disagreeing, i just dont understand if you could explain it to me. Thanks.

You'll have to ask someone more knowledgeable on the subject than I, but I ran better with lower humidity just about like lower temps. when I raced regularly at Moroso. After the track slips stopped printing it, there were guys out there with their own guages so they could tell what differences they had. Of course, they were always there since these toys were available, but word got around due to interest.
