I was able to borrow a friends camera which enabled me to actually take some video for once in about 5 years.

Here is a link to my new personal best at mid o a 1:39.1 confirmed via amb transponder. This was on the lastish event of the year (on fence about putnam). I should with a fresh set of tires next year be mid ohio run 1:38s with a personal goal next year of a 1:37.anything. my goal this year was a 1:19.XX at putnam and a 1:39.XX at mid o. My putnam time in the spring was a 1:20.06 so I may go out in October and try again.

I copied the link and went to U Tube and searched and found it. Wow! That was exciting! Good thing no one hit U... What set of tires were U running in that race?

fixed the video. This forum uses a different embed code than another I am on. I run Hoosier A6s when I am running for times and Continental scrubs when I am practicing

What rear end ratio is in the car? What are the car's specs for race day? Thanks.

funny you should ask about the rear end ratio. I dont know what it is. But I have become gear limited and have had to use 5th at mid o, and 4th at putnam more than my liking. I hope I have the shorter of the two ratios that came in the turbo cars so I can switch to the taller gearset.

not sure what you mean by setup. my springs are 1350 lb/in in the front and 600 lb/in in the rear. The shocks are oem replacement bilsteins with stock valving. sway bars are suspension techniques and I made the end links. Camber is around 2.5 in the front and 2 in the rear.

Thanks for sharing. I am also interested in the weight, the engine and the balance and feel of the car while driving at the limit. Thanks.
