Nice grouping. And if you think dirt is bad, try snow and ice on Hoosiers. Trying to get my car loaded up ahead of time on my trailer to get to the dyno this week was no fun. Shoveled off a foot of snow from the trailer and gave it a shot. Failure to launch. Mission aborted. Will have to wait until later this week. Got my seats in though. And painted my ballast. Went old school. Just snapped these. This is what I am dealing with.

Very nice. I'm here windows open, enjoying an amazing upper 70s day.

As for the grouping, it is ok, not good. Was really windy and was shooting cheapest possible ammo just to get scope in the ball park. When I use good ammo they should all be touching worst case.

One more thing this weekend was a Pac valve spring micrometer and LSM spring tool. My homemade 10+ year old valve spring tool has served me well, but its time to try something new.

Nice. Which LSM spring tool did you get? I need a new one too and was going to buy this one: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/lsm-sc-167
