Nothing too scientific here but hopefully it will be of some value to people.

I can see what all the fuss is about now. The 518Stock just feels so much smoother than the 119stock.
However, I do think the 119stock has a lot more power / top end speed.
The main difference is that with the new software temps are lower and because of that you can run more timing.
Particularly at Edgeworth with such an open layout... But also has some very slow sections.... Plus 35c + temps during the day... Track around 65c
Cant wait to try new software this Saturday night!
