Took my Turbo 5.3 99 FRC to the track yesterday to make some test passes. Last time out I had issues getting the car to 60' due to trans brake tuning issue as well as some rear suspension setup issues.

Here's the build thread: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...ld-thread.html


I sorted out the trans brake tuning and suspensions issues and managed to make some representative passes.

1st hit off the trailer went 1.45 60' 5.89@122 9.10@151
2nd hit 1.48 5.89@124 9.05@155
3rd and 4th hits I tried some stuff that didn't work and slowed the car down in the 60' to 1.5's and ran 9.2x's
5th hit went 1.49 5.92@122 9.11@153
I learned what the car liked and didn't like from the previous 3 passes
6th hit went 1.42 5.81@123 9.000@152
I think I learned what it wants to go into the high 1.3x 60' range, so I'm hopeful next time out it will go in the 8's.

So close from that 60 ft time that is some good 1/4 time & speed. Robert

Congrats. It looks like the car is working, just need to knock a little more off the 60' time.

What are you switching up to make it go 1.3x?

Awesome! That thing is rolling out.

Nice job for such a new setup. Is that Rossler trans setup something they still offer?

Very nice just saw the build thread I thought high 9s was impressive.
9.0 with 1.4x 60ft you can just tell the world you have 8s C5

C5 Pete

Now that’s more like it!
