Mine did. Yours could. More would if this place wasn't a haven for hardparkers.

[QUOTE=Why would you tune for 100 octane for the track given the fuel starvation issue of the 370. You better hope you have a gas pump at the track.[/QUOTE]

I said tune for 95. At least add some 100. There is 91 and 100 at the pump at all of our tracks. Helps a lot with these hot-running motherf*cking VQ's that we love.
