That's really dumb.
I got a bunch of videos from your GoPro Will. Thanks again for letting me borrow that. I copied the videos off the SD card, just haven't had time to edit them (due to issues with my car lol). Not sure when I'll be able to edit them considering my car issues and I'm supposed to be moving on Saturday LOL. I did watch a few before bed last night and one of my really good laps was 1:45. Not sure if that's the fastest lap I had, but it's hard to tell because most of the time I ran into slower traffic. I definitely had a blast though!

I wish I could have made it, but at this point I won't have the roll bar on till tomorrow.
So I checked the factory service manual for my code P0300 and here's the list of possible causes:
-CKP sensor malfunction
-CMP sensor malfunction
-Ignition coil malfunction
-Ignition system malfunction
-MAF sensor contamination
-Excess air suction in intake air system (between MAF sensor and intake manifold)
-Fuel pump malfunction
-Fuel pressure regulator (built-in fuel pump unit) malfunction
-Fuel line clogged
-Fuel filter clogged
-Fuel leakage in fuel line
-Fuel runout
-Poor quality fuel
-Purge control solenoid valve malfunction
-PCV valve malfunction
-EGR valve malfunction
-Vacuum hoses damages or improper connection
-Related connector and terminal malfunction
-Related wiring harness malfunction
-Insufficient compression
-Variable valve timing control system improper (L3)
LOL...that's a long list of possible causes.
#1: Remember when we were at Jake's house when we did my HPFP internals? You suggested cleaning some sensor on top of the valve cover (towards the right side I think). Do you remember what sensor that was?

I thought we cleaned the cam position sensor while we were there? And it was clean. It's right on top on the drivers side with an 8mm bolt. But unfortunately, I doubt that's what the issue is. 
But it's at a dealership right now, right? How will that work with who's working on it and charges and all that jazz?

I don't remember cleaning that sensor, unless I didn't notice you or Jake clean it. Right now, they're just going to diagnose the issue and I requested they call me with a quote before doing anything. That way I can decide if it's easy and I can do it myself in their parking lot lol. (like coil packs).
I'd be up for a MOTM photo shoot but I can't make menchies I will be working 2nd shift the next two weeks I could make a Sat or Sun shoot.
In the past, I've gotten P0401 codes (EGR flow insufficient) on really hot days. I got it back in June and again about 1 month ago. I'm thinking it may be completely clogged or the valve could be stuck.
