Ive tuned ECUs with tip in retard, but honestly Ive always left it at default settings. I though it had to be there.

This car is a ******* blast, zero regrets. Emilio and John trimmed my rear bump stops moyle style and it changed the game a bit. I'm within two seconds of my best turbo time wislt struggling for clean track. I'll get there tomorrow.

Idrove Crusher for a session and ran within a second of Emilio so i feel somewhat validated as a man.

He drove my car for a session with me riding shotgun and definitely learned a few things about corner entry and that made a dramatic decrease in lap time.

Doesn't fit how? Doesn't line up with header, hangers in the wrong place?

It was "damp" when he ran that, lol. That car will probably run 24's, it's a super cool car, drives itself. Basically, I'm giddy because I finally drove a car with no lift and clean aero, very cool experience.

It's been misting all day and in the 60s but when a few cars get on track it becomes mostly dry.
