Put the 2013 back on two min before the main and the tune stayed rock solid. The engine really came alive tonight so I'm going to have to de-tune the clutch from where I had it. The Bigboy pipe was brand new for today so I'm pretty disappointed that it didn't even make it one club race day. I don't know if I'll be able to get a replacement before next weekends race. I may wait to see what Kortz's comments are about the pipe.
its awesome how after the motor breaks in how solid it holds a tune....
and I think its impressive to push the stinger in on teh bigboy pipe when the stinger is only a 1/4 inch long you da man!!!!!!
what kind of runtime did you get with the 2013?? I just got one to try and plan to try it this weekend
