Thanks for sharing your experiences. Can't wait to see some video. That's an awesome car and I'm glad I can live the experience vicariously through you...

That is a really smart approach. It takes a while to get your brain recalibrated to driving a downforce car..... But it sure is fun learning.

Today I'm focusing on shortening braking zones & need to trust the downforce in the infield

Congrats Bill, the care looks great!! Keep working your way up slow and steady, that is a good plan. JD

Thnx my crew swapped the whole exhaust system last night. We had wrong headers & were melting plug wires.

Another Corvette DP team was very nice & gave us great deal on full system & helped install so the plug issue should b done now

New headers

I am sure that with the support crew you have that you are already doing this.... But I found that reviewing my G data between runs to be very helpful in re calibrating my brain to driving with downforce. I know that my car will corner at 2 to 2.5 G's depending on the speed, so seeing the actual G's I am pulling through the corners right after I experienced it helps give me the confidence to push harder.... without over driving.

Here is my data from last weekend. I am getting there but still have a quite a way to go.

And I know that your car is FAR more capable than mine.

Enjoy

That is absolutely sick. Hopefully you can bring to Track Attack in 2015.

Now it just needs a Katech engine.

This looks right to me...........there is nothing to be gained by going ***** out and risking yourself and the car. It's much smarter creeping up on the car's limits and your skill/confidence levels.....good job.

harrydirty

Not to doubt you, but I'm curious how you know your car will pull 2-2.5 g's.......I'm creeping up on my car's limits and depending on conditions, it sometimes changes (well, my driving needs to be more consistent as well...........).
