Turn off Pedal Commander in the rain when using with a tune.

Yeah! The tune without the PC gives me better than stock throttle response but nothing like the PC alone does. I keep the PC set on "sport #2 or 3 and it's very responsive. The combination of the two is just a little too much in the rain. Went to pass someone and when I put my foot into it, it got a little too squirley for my taste.

Mike, have you driven it enough to get a feel for your mileage since the tune?

I haven't driven it that much since. I did reset the lie-o-meter and drive it like an old lady for a little over 100 miles. Before tune I was just above 17mpg, "playing" with the tune I dropped to low 16's. Driving like a "normal adult" I'm at 16.9 so not too much of a drop if I give the boost gauge a rest!

That's not bad, wouldn't surprise me if you picked up a bit more than what you were getting before the tune. I just took my tunes out, got it going in the shop Tuesday morning.

Let's all take a moment to remember those who lost their lives on this day 17 years ago!

Very eerie, this morning looks like the same as it did then. Weird, but I've noticed that on most 9/11's since that day.

Heard about it before I left for work when my mother called. Tuned in to the news and saw a replay of the second plane hitting the south tower a few minutes after it occurred.
About 1/2 hour later heard about the Pentagon, then seen the south tower collapse live.
Left for work on the way heard about Flight 93 and the north tower collapsing. It seemed so unreal.
They sent us home from work at about noon, it was so quiet after they shut down all air traffic.
That evening I ran out of gas waiting in line and had to push my LT1 Firebird convertible up to the pumps.
Folks were filling multiple up cans of gas for no real reason other than fear which I understand, and there was some price gouging on fuel too.
Hard to believe it was seventeen years ago.
Mike
