I get what you're saying. You have to be able to verify against consistent national level type people, that show up in the same car week to week, that just arrive and drive, that don't tinker and adjust their cars. There are very few national level people that do that. Which is what makes it hard.

If they adjust or change their car week to week, you're fighting a moving target when you attempt to compare. The only thing left is you against the course. You gotta find that time out there, not vs others.

...but your competition is always going to be a moving target. It isn't really like golf or bowling by yourself or drag racing test & tune.

Locals for me this year are basically really inefficient, busy, time consuming test and tunes, without the opportunity to really test anything. Pay $45 and give up 13 hours to take 6 runs, maybe. This probably won't help my consistency or sorting the car at all, but I think I may skip all locals.

Anyway...

Replaced a couple wheel studs, tightened all my suspension bolts, moved the front bar to stiff, gonna revisit higher pressures, got my muffler on, so I'm ready for Blytheville.
