$60 bucks for a valve cover gasket and a two week shipping wait. Ugh. Gonna try the rtv again. And will put the old valve cover on. Took friday off work to do some race prep such as the VC.

Brakes are ground down to fit my 15" slicks now. Still logging and tuning to get it dialed in. The one thing left on the list is figure out why my car doesn't hold boost to redline but I'm not sure if I'm gonna have enough time to figure it out before Saturday. I tried. It's been work, car, sleep the last week and a half lol. With the odd cocktail of course.

Since track day didn't go so well, you guys should come to Proving Grounds in MN on September 11-13th. The track should be sticky!

No idea how I ran a 14.3. Was just as hot and slick since us street tire guys can't use the groove.

Must have been humidity. A friend Kevin with a TC trifecta 25psi tune ran a 14.2@101 with a 2.4 60ft. Should be trapping faster than that. Remember Garrett? He had the exact same set up and ran like a 13.6@105 with a 2.2 60ft.

Kevin was NLSing all the way down the track lol.
