After my outing on 4/10, I changed over to the ACR wheels and tires, replaced the Paxton air filter, and changed the oil and filter. Despite the fact that it was brutal out there today: 84 degrees, relative humidity more than 80%, cross wind in the morning and quartering headwind in the afternoon of about 15 to 20 MPH, the car did a bit better than last time. My best run was 173.947 MPH. It will be interesting to see what the fifth gear change out will do once it is done but testing same will have to wait until the Fall. Between the heat and humidity and the heat of the runway by the time I left I was a bit fried mentally and physically. Brooks thought that the car also performed pretty well in the quarter considering the fact that the launch conditions were poor and I had to roll into the gas each time to try to maintain traction.
