NICE! if you don't mind me asking how much was the battery mount? I am thinking about moving mine there but my FPR is basically in that same spot so it would have to move

Damn that cobra was moving on the last race. Looks like you picked up some mph from the new exhaust housing though.

Yea, not sure if it is mainly from the housing or taking off the ladder though. I added 3mph with 4psi less boost, so something is clearly working better.

Looks like you pissed off that cobra on the last run and he turned it up

What do the slips look like? The cobra jumped the last race. I think that is all he beat you buy but can't tell without the slips.

That is awesome! You know the cobra was on it's way to the track expecting to be possibly the fastest I would imagine. Then a little old truck came and ran with him! haha

No doubt the cobra was the faster car, but the first two races I got the better launch and he couldnt catch up in time, and the third one where he really turns it up he redlights by 0.023 I dont have the slips in front me me but I put it in the other thread.
