Ring and took 56 seconds off the PB there, with lots of room to go. I can
feel now that it can be done faster. Just 110 from my nearest competition
now...8^).
BTW, thanks for the kind words about the tune. Tomorrow's a studio night
so no driving for me tomorrow. This weekend's pretty tight too, what with
the GP in Montreal and Le Mans on Speedvision...but the big change is
that I can really -feel- that the speed will come. It's there, I just

the drawer. The monk hesitates a moment and then says, "Wait! What about
my change?" The guy behind the counter smiles serenely and says, "Aaahhh,
change must come from within."
