Default Not sure what is causing this?

So i had a semi tune put on.. made it good to drive, and i raced it quite a bit at the big meet down south.. the last couple days id start the car and it would run a 10.0 AFR flat.. last night i tried to go WOT and it instantly broke up and seemed to go lean.. im not sure what is throwing the tune off? i dont see anything unconnected or blown off, the MAF is fine... idk what to be looking at? could this just be fouled plugs?

if it has corrected itself then it means fuel trims are way off...if fuel trims are off then yes it will always throw the tune out the window. ecu has gotten wise to your tricks.
