I ran today with all the new stuff. Unfortunately the new paint did not impact the performance much.

The worst thing was my new distributor rotor with the rev limiter of 6200. I ran out of rpm several places on the course and could not extract alll that the car is capable of. The handling seemed pretty neutral and the brakes felt good though.

I didn't drive too badly and by the end of the day had mastered the subtilties of the course reasonalby well.

We have another event next weekend at connersville, a nice slippery little parking lot with badly deteriorating asphalt where last year I gave the man who finished second in C mod in the national event a run within .003 seconds of his best. I actually had him beat up until the last run of the day and didn't know it.

I always seem to do well on slippery asphalt venues.

I have a week to get a list of things sorted out. the rev limiting rotor is at the top of it.
