The 156 was from a dig and the car took off pretty well.... if I didnt spin the tires on the 1-2 shift (car skipped 2nd and went to 3rd), I think I may have seen another 1-2mph. The tuning I did through out the day helped getting out of the hole. Oh, and no tape, nothing removed and full weight + me (which is heavy).
