Is it just me?

my imagination? But my car seems to run better than ever smoother after the track day than before. Seems to have more power also.

Maybe I finally blew all the carbon out the previous owner left in it.
I still red line it once or twice a day as I have since I have owned but after last Sat it just seems better than ever.

I've noticed the same Monte. These things respond well to a good thrashing...

What's that old saying about dogs, women and walnut trees...
