while i dont really know pole at all, i can feel his pain. Ive worked for a couple yrs now to get my 3L to where it is at. Now that the graphics are on, and the motor is almost dialed in just right i only have 1 or 2 things on the list (famous last words) but it has brought me tons of fun on the autox course. i was always chasing someone/some car. but now im the one being chased, while that it fun, i know the few cars in my region that are faster, i know ill never catch. that is unless i do a crazy NA motor build.
i dont know where this is supposed to go, but maybe if you can use what you have on an autox course or something like that it would help. The race car has to be just so, an autox car can be a daily, and still be fun
