It makes no sense to me ..........
Not sure what the altitude of the track is, but assuming 500 ft, when you were making your first runs, the DA showed to be 510.
Right now, it's -105.
Of course, those numbers are for Dallas. Crandall may be (probably is) different.
Where's Rich Craft's magic meter when we need it?
Either he's right about the water vapor getting thick there after dark, or your tune doesn't like the "better" conditions.
Sorry I got there too late to get the video.

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
