You're starting to get some good track time @ Laguna aren't you Charlie?

Sweet pics. Must've been a blast. Glad to see the Mule mixing it up with the newer iron and more than holding its own.

I think about 8lbs boost. Trying not to look at the guage when it is coming on. You always look fast when there are fast cars in the pics. Doesn't mean that they didn't pass you a few seconds later.

what were your lap times near the end of the day after some heat and seat time?

Oh, and it's a proven fact that the Mule NEVER sees track time.

Thank God it didnt have air on it too..... that would have been triple bad! We all know that air suspensions are not any good for a roadcoarse
