So you got this in a straight away? I have a hard time with that.

To be fair when mine reads half a tank I've put 8-9 gallons in it, but yes, WOT straight line, 60-20-60 on a hard righthander on the street, freeway cloverleaf, or sweeping righthander on track. The 09's have the worst of it.

should have what i was calling the final part in the last machine process by the end of the day or early tomorrow. we got a little behind since brandon was renewing his vows or something like that friday so i was alone at the shop thursday and friday. hoping to get the part completed tomorrow then. we did end up changing our level sensor mount... we were going to be using the ones that we put on our twin fuel pump assembly, but we are doing it a little different, which is one more part to machine now but its a simple part that requires no fixturing or anything... so as soon as this other part is done we can immediately machine that.

a backorder list has been started for the next batch now.

Quick story, at Laguna Seca I had a light fuel starvation issue. Where you have three right handers in a row, I came off the racing line and made a hard left in a straight. Doing this the last three laps bandaged the problem till I refilled.

Of course I was questioned about what I was doing. Are you drunk? One more reason to buy this product.

I used to get same thing out of turn 4 about half way down the straight. Also got it out of turn 10. The fix from Z Car garage should fix that on my car. It's like having a left hand turn in the tank.

Two Dots Down At NOLA and I hit fuel starvation. I can barely Finnish one heat before I hit fuel starvation.

Yes it is. But there might be people that back out when payment time comes. But as stated he already has another list going for the next batch. So I'm sure if some don't pay out of the first batch he'll start from the first names on the second list.

So, I havent been using the mailing list for updates like I said I would. I apologize for that. We actually decided to stay a little private about the design for now. We are building this for other applications and dont want anyone else to beat us to our own punchline.

But just for those of you fearing that I am going to drag you along for another year...

(I hope it looks expensive, because its getting there)
