I don't think the Corvette registered in S3 afternoon session is correct.

I sure hope the car gods give me a break tomorrow. After all the work I've done to it the last few weeks I thought it was all straightened out. I took the Nissan out yesterday and all was fine for about 20 minutes then it started idling rough and the idle rpm was all over the place. After wanting to drive it into the Gulf I got settled down and realized it was a different problem than before. Cleaned the MAF sensor and that seemed to do the trick, drove it all day today, and it runs better than it ever has before. So barring any issues, I might be putting up a good fight in M3 tomorrow. :twisted:
