Good seeing you at Willow Springs.

We got trounced with our Grand Am engine.

We have tire warmers this time. Our Pirelli tires were not ready for battle until the cool off lap

Lou,

I won't be at Phoenix but hope to go to Fontana for that event.

Me thinks Joey S will be contacting LGM for a new engine build when he gets wind of this!

How much lift at the valve on the camshaft?

Or are the Pirelli tires not the best choice for this event ?

There are some "time attack" tires that are really sticky but we have to run the same tire for the whole event. The really sticky tires won't last enough laps.

It seems that the warmers are the best answer to get the tires up to temp so they start out at the race temp.

Pirelli tires, from Grand Am are actually some of the best tires that I have ever used.
Look at World Challenge now. They started using Pirelli tires and at St pete last week, they destroyed my 3 year old qualifying record by 2 full seconds on Pirelli tires.

So for the Circuit Battle events, I think the warmers will do the trick.

Very impressive numbers - what displacement? bore and stroke? (if not stock)

OK, I get the evasiveness. The answer this: greater than .600" at the valve or not?

Thank you in advance.

Too bad you can't run the 102 intake and TB in STO.
