The question was “How much would the Hutter Tune Help?” Well we rushed to TRP to make some passes. The first thing that was great is the car will now do a burnout. Nothing like rubber on your quarters to say you’re a real racer. (The new batteries that I just got for my Fuji went dead early so I don’t have any of the exciting things that happened later.) It was a day of lows, then highs, then lows then the ultimate high. Here is a video of my very first pass, the shift points were too high and would hit the rev limiter, that went on for several passes, but I called Trevor at Hutter’s, he said he was planning to come out and would be there soon. Well he sent Dusty ahead with the computer and he did a quick download, which fixed the problem for one pass then it returned. By then Trevor arrived, he made one last change and I made three more great passes after that, including my very best ever.

Along with the new numbers, I went four rounds in the Gamblers Race,
finish in third place and it paid me $10 on $5 entry into the race.
Always fun at TRP, just sometimes it’s even more Fun!!!
I win!! I'm quite certain nobody there gave me a chance. I love being the underdog sometimes, but I knew my luck would only last so long, since I'm running a stick shift, front driver, with a questionable clutch.
