I'm not FAT yet but getting there really quick.

If I'm running 9 lbs do I need to lock it? I always thought you need to lock if you running over 10 lbs.

I get a small ping at the end of 2nd and sometimes 3rd but I think it's more related to leaning out.

I saw you too at SS7, did you lower your car or did just end up that way from you sitting in it??

Web, retard your timing a bit and see if it still pings. With my car, pings are too advanced timing. If it runs lean it'll just hit a wall and stop accelerating while making all kinds of nasty noises.
