doing some suspension tuning so we still have yet to turn it up.

using 20psi run and 10psi launch.

yes and no. still having a time with it.

unfortunatley i cant stay off it.

so in the am its better than the swollen limp mode it goes into by the end of the day/evening.

actually had trouble with it on the run,
imagine haveing your throttle leg shaking like its cold while your trying to push thru the firewall on a run. very strange experience.

still limping.
fwiw the doc didnt assign physical therapy... he figured what i do during the day is more than enough.

usually when you are sleepy you don't red light, but "sleep" at the light :)

Re: 9.136@150.18

Ed and I are both running 66's which will barely make the same power as a single 80mm. Robert and Hoovers are/were both running a much larger single (88mm +) so they techincally should make more power.

2 inst always more then 1. The power just comes in quicker and is more driveable with smaller twins.

no idea who this is... :)

dont know if a video exists, hopefully a pic or 2 later on.

training wheels are off twin 66's are on.

this pass is our baseline to begin with now that we have the bugs out and the installed suspension stuff to begin dialing it in.
