Finally tossed together a video of a few laps from last weekend at Thunderbolt. First time at this track, second time ever on any track. Fun time! Ended up taking 2nd place in Limited AWD with RTA.

I have a ton of time left on the table at this track! Can't wait to get back!

 

I need to fab something up. Slowly getting around to it.

 

Few more shots of the car

took a few nice photos yesterday of the car. I think they turned out pretty good.

 

^^^are you running a flat floor now? or just guards at the skirts to keep air out?

 

Wow, I like what you did with the wing.

 

no flat floor yet. I do have plans to do that eventually, but trying one thing at a time. I hate having to spend time with repairs/tweaks at the track and rather spend more time finding ways to improve my driving.

The side skirts are pretty simple, 6inches of alumilite with a few bolts holding it at the pinch welds and 2 aluminum brackets. I'm predicting they will get beat up pretty quickly. I'll find out next weekend.

Thanks. I can tell its making a bit more downforce. my trunk is being pushed so far down its rubbing into the bumper. I need to re-enforce the trunk lid or fab a real chassis mount wing.

 

Car look great!

Did you notice any increments/decrements in air resistance at high speeds?

 

Not at all. if I did its less than 3-4mph. at Blackhawk I was always hitting about 130mph on the front straight, and with the bigger raisers on the rear spoiler and didn't seem to lose any speed. I wish I had data from 2012 season but I didn't have my Traqmate at that time.

 

my dad came through with some sweet pics again this weekend.

 

^^ Those are great pics KP.

Here's a few of me...







Loving that South East infield.

Here's a quick video of a recent Hill Climb.

It's only running an Evo 9 turbo but puts out well over 400 flywheel hp on E85.

 

^^^Nicely done Enjoyed your Vid.

Interesting to me that Australia has E85

 

Finally decided to pull the evo out of the trailer after the fire and start diagnosing the extent of the damage.



In this picture... the head and oil pan are still bolted onto the block, hah.
