    You could always do a mix rotation of areas, butt hey would have to milar to get consistant tuning results. The scarey thing about doing a 4th gear WOT log is that it'll take you to 108 MPH and that's enough for the 50 over/street racing law. You definitely need to be cautious.

    LMAO, my message was broken up when typing on the blackberry keyboard/screen, here's what it should have said:

    "You could always do a mix rotation of areas, but they would have to be similar to get consistant tuning datalogs. The scarey thing about doing a 4th gear WOT log is that it'll take you to 112 MPH and that's enough for the 50 over/street racing law. You definitely need to be cautious."

    That's what the message should have said, but a closed road/track is the safest/best/only place to do a 4th gear WOT log.

    Oh and clearly those speeds are determined from my days at the 1/4 mile and Toronto TMP, not the street which is why I think @fywdy was asking what I was doing by posting a speed.. lol.

    Hahaha, well I can't edit the post since I don't have enough posts. So if a mod likes they can go a head and edit the posts. Though I don't see what's wrong with the post since I don't say I do those speeds on public streets, that's what test & tune days at the 1/4 mile are for. I was just stating what speed you would be doing, oh well.

    After some Disscussion with Dustin from Perm he suggests the best place to do Logs is the Track. The surface is consistent and it is a safe environment.

    Agreed. That's what I've been doing. Go down to the 1/4 mile and basically "waste" a pass for logging and then enjoy the rest of the night racing at the strip.

    Tuning on the strip is def way less expensive than dyno time, but both have their advantages.

    The biggest issue I noticed with tuning at the strip is the heat soak as you wait in the staging lanes. My BAT's were reading 160 degree F while waiting.

    A couple of ways to manage BAT temps while in the staging lanes...
    - A bag of ice on the intake manifold
    - Pushing car through the staging lanes as opposed to idling
    - Thermal intake gasket to keep the heat transfer from the head down.
