Todd,
Watched your Sunday race. You battled for awhile with the Nascar clone, but his power eventually pulled away on the front straight. It looked like that cost you some tire wear and the other PTE cars started to come back on you.
I was really happy with my results considering how down on power I was. I had to wait for the front runners to slow a little from tire wear and draft the Spec Boxster down the front straight to keep with him. ( at one point I was about 1ft from his bumper at 130mph). I used his tow for three laps or so to gap the other GTS cars, then I started challenging him in a couple of turns. He eventually overcooked T1 and went into the kitty litter. Held on for 3rd.
I think I know where to look for the issue, will let you know tomorrow. BTW, I pulled the bottom plugs per your suggestion (two were only hand tight!) plugs looked fine though. If I get it fixed, I am tempted to run Nov as 30-40hp makes a big difference in lap times.
