what improved...hp or your driving?
im thinking power, im sure driving improved as well because as the day went on the times started to fall. over the whole day i did a total of 20 runs.

What was the temp difference from this time compared to your last? I ran 3 tenths slower with a difference of 25 degrees outside. Just a possability. What changes was made between the runs with the car itself?
Nice runs, good to see all that tuning made a big difference!
Temps were probably at best 15*C, last year must have been 25-30*C.
as for what was changed between runs, only thing i did from the beginning of the day to the end was remove my backseat. i was pissed off i was stuck at the 15.8 mark so i started ripping things out lol. i was even more pissed when it didnt seem to be helping... then the times fell a few runs later.
