Totally agreed.

Racepack setup is fine but you do have to choose to display stuff like either fuel level or fuel pressure, oil temp or oil pressure. The Mule and Camaro X are at a disadvantage to the Mustang because they have street tires and the Mustang has track only tires and it is just a ton of difference to me. I'm going to get a set of race tires for Camaro X and try it again. I was dumb and happy with street tires till I ran sticky race tires.

The BIR School has classes every 2 weeks or so - Heck, you already know a couple of the top instructors there.

I keep threatening myself to road trip there after I found out it has essentially a mile long straight. I could easily clear 160mph with that much room but diesel fuel is sooo outta whack it would cost a fortune to tow there and back from Denver area (2K round trip at 11 mpg). Would be a blast tho'.

That white Mustang belongs to my friend Jack. He just added that wing and it actually makes a big difference. He is pretty fast in that car. Has a whipple charger on a stock engine.

I have an 11"x70" wing on my car and it creates approx 350lbs of downforce at 140mph, so yeah, big difference if you have a car like mine with a tendency for high speed oversteer. Also has about 350 lbs of drag at that speed too so it can be hard to pull thru the air, but that just creates a moment arm putting more normal force to my rear tires while lightening the front end (so I added a splitter to balance that out).

So if he picked up speed he must have had oversteer issues before.
