Those numbers are really awesome, Rusty.  Maybe there’s hope for my power, cooling, speed problems…J

BTW, Did your new bike come with training wheels, or did you add your own? 

FWIW, the other day it was 92 degrees on the ground, and I climbed at 100 kts to 8k ft, full throttle.  The max oil temp was 195, and the max water was 178.  At 8000 ft, full throttle, temps settled in to be 183 for oil, and 130 for water.  That was at 196 mph TAS, with plenty of fairing work left to be done.  As for climb performance, I noticed that the EM-2 flight timer was on 7 minutes when I leveled out at 8k ft.  That's OK for now, but I expect to see that time to 8k ft be less than 4 min with the C drive.
