Jim, buddy, great stuff, 14.1 is a great run for your first time out, good
trap speed too for a 14.1, car musta been pulling pretty hard.  What was your
boost for that run?  What was ambient temp? I assume pretty low from your trap
speed, in comparison I had a 103mph trap for a 13.2, but it was also 95d
outside, the heat really starts sapping power down the last half of the run.

Yes, the 104 could have afforded you a bunch of advance, typically I see
about 5d of advance with half 100, and as we've talked, anything above 17 for me
requries half 100 or it just won't make power due to excessive retard.

Again, great to see you out there.
