All runs were performed at Maryland International Raceway on 10/23/2011 during a test and tune event from 11:30AM to 3:02 PM. Vehicle is my daily driver running APR’s production release TSI Stage 3 v2.0 93 octane tune. Fueling used was 104 octane w/ water meth injection. Engine has stock internals. Additional information is listed below.
The 3 runs listed below were performed with an hour cool down period between runs. Runs 2 & 3 were both at 11.78 (11.781 / 11.788) with trap speeds of 117.09 / 117.65.
My 4th run was the first round of a gamblers race where I ran my best time of 11.73@117.22. My dial-in time for the gamblers race was 11.70…but I still lost…barely…which ended my ability to run again that day.
