Yea, everyone was commenting on how fast it was down
the second half of the track.  I was pulling people in
pretty easily, eventhough I left the line way behind
them on the line.

I raised it a little, to like 2.2 bar

I added about 3 or 4 degree's just to be safe, I was

the clutch slip on me once, so that's good.
