I tightened the front shocks a little and it helped with that. Matt got a interveiw after the 30mile truestreet cruise, back in the lanes. He was faster in our NA bolt on small cam G8, then the APS twin turbo g8:mamoru: ---

i heard paul majors vette had a fire? didn’t see anything with the yellow one, it had a bad oil leak and stoped racing to find it. i don’t think adam went, didn’t see him there? Gas mileage was great. 6 speed cars rules with the 2 OD gears, at 75mph its only 2k rpms. I havnt figured out the mpg but it was about the same as a g8 was getting. I think the G8s best was a 12.3@ 113 over last weekend. But went a 12.1 @114 a few weeks ago at NYI ---
