Wow, 91 Octane sounds like a great combo. That could motivate me back to High compression.
60 degree temps is pretty darn cool. |

Congrats!
If the time is correct on those slips you really don't give the car much rest if any in between runs. Have you tried making a pass with the engine cooler? |

Car cools down pretty quick, and actually likes to be about 180 when launching, still a tad rich is y i'm guessing, plus it gets trans temp up some, conv seems to act better, looser with hotter fluid?
