If you are looking for sampe curves for certain combos, I have them. I
can send or post images of the curves. My car was one of the weak ones

I'll put up what my car did.

That sounds like a really sad day at the track, did anyone run quick?
I'd like to the 60' times and their traps. Maybe next time you go?
