Can't remember his name, but it was only him running it alone. He had only 2 laps with me and didn't say a word until the end of the 2 laps. Thanks for the tip

As far as the COBB AP with shelf Nismo map, I was going to ask the same question after seeing your first page with mods.

Q: Did this eliminate the notorious throttle lag? I have a buddy with contacts at UpRev and almost pulled the trigger on a basic tune...but UpRev stated they are still looking into a fix for the throttle lag and it's due to the VVEL (varible valve event lift).
It seemed to help a little but after some heatsoak I felt a little bit of lag while driving in traffic. The partial throttle tuning feels MUCH improved overall though

Gotcha. I've had good luck attending Sondra's events/schools: Velocity Adventures

Barry is definitely an instructor I would recommend with Velocity Adventures.


As someone else suggested TDE events are pretty good and they have a bunch of instructors.

I'm signed up for TDE on Nov 4-5 at MSR Houston. They also have another one before that, at Texas World Speedway in early Oct.

I've been to MSR-H twice now for their informal open-lapping days, I really like the track, but I don't have a lot to compare it to outside of video games . Both times I went before it was running clockwise, and I believe for TDE they'll be going CCW, so that will be a nice change (and probably save me some fuel starve).
