when these cars get too hot they don't run as good but most of the time you will have a hour between runs,, now 12.56 in 83 degree weather and the humidity was 94%, ( you could just stand there and be ringing wet in 10 min. oh 12.56 in 83* and my best 12.40 in 51* go figure. I may have a vib later. jim
