Well.. It was fun.. The car with the current setup is overpowering the tires.
Car would get up on the rev limiter almost instantly, didn't matter how many gears i would shift..

The track felt like an ice skate rink.

I'm going to make a few changes to the suspension, Change wastegate springs and take some power out of this thing. Hopefully in a week or two i'll be testing it again...

it nice meeting you guys, and seeing some old faces yesterday, too bad our car broke, I had my hd cam with me, but didn't get to film anything. Let me know the next time you'll be out there, I"m only 45 minutes or so from there. hopefully I can get my fd down for a tune soon so I can be out there running too.
