Dyno'd the car today on a no-name heart breaker dyno.
Picked up 5-7% power and torque from the start of the session to the end, but I think I'm still quite a ways from what a proper 0pt NB1 PTE engine should make, especially on E85.
We'll see tomorrow how it fairs against a couple of other PTE miatas and some PTE Porsches.
Blaming my tires is being very generous, he forgot to mention he was also on tires of dubious heat cycle count. I drove like crap in both races. My GoPro did what GoPros do and checked out at the start of the 2nd race, but I do have the 1st race. I'll post a link to the video once I get it put together.
We had some good clean racing in cars that I think are actually well matched. I really do want to go buy some R7s now though.... along with cams and a proper diff.

Congrats on the pole and wins... Doesn't sound like a bad weekend.
What tuner/dyno shop did you use in the Charlotte area, if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you for the congrats.
The dyno shop I used was CKP Tuning aka Custom Kings Performance. The tuner was me, myself, and Irene. I don't remember the brand/type of the dyno but it is a roller type and allegedly it reads 10-15% lower than a dynojet. I'm guessing the 15% is about accurate.
The dyno works/worked well enough. My tuner is a bit of a hack though.

I look forward to seeing the video.
I've been slacking very badly on taking video the last year or so. I really should have front and rear facing cameras running every session.
Here you go. I always run video. The GoPro flakes out for one reason or another like 1/3 the time, but I don't like having video if someone protests for some BS reason.
Picked up some new (to me) suspension goodies from Lars Wednesday night. Not sure if I'll install before CMP because I will have to immediately un-install after the event becuz ChumpCar.
I think we're currently at 4 TTE cars. One of you guys in the southeast need to come play with us at this event so Marcus can win some more tires.
