Hi Guys,

I finally made it out to the first race in over 2 years on our new setup.
For our first passes and a track that is 4000ft elevation I was pretty happy with the day.

First pass was 166
Second pass was 184
third pass was 188
Final pass was 194.8

The car has a lot left in it we hope to be ready and going ***** out at the Indy Wannagofast event in October. These passes were low boost and no traction management enabled. It is a challenge getting a manual car down an unprepared surface but a lot of fun!

Final pass, low quality video:

Nice! You should do some in car videos at the next one

161 was my best but I forgot to start the camera on that run

Damn! Hate we didn't catch up while we were there. Saturday was a bust but Sunday weather was great.
I may have dash footage. Haven't unloaded everything yet.

What camera system were you using that allowed the overlay of all your
Computer info? That's looked great compared to reading a graph off hptuners..

schpenxel

GoPro for video, HPTuners log for data, RaceRender (also by HPTuners) for putting the two together

It was a pain getting them lined up just right but RaceRender includes some tools that help. Once it's close it's pretty easy to find a spot where the tachometer peaks or whatever so you can line that spot up to the same spot in the log

schpenxel

Yeah man I didn't know anyone there so I was just sitting around in the car all day, lol. Oh well next time maybe I'll do a thread to see who all is going to be there

Weather was really nice Sunday! I got a little sunburned but not too bad

I went Saturday to get right to the gate and get rained out. Glad you guys had a good day Sunday.

Are you running the same length tethers on the 2 Stroud chutes?

They staggered mine, and Im not sure I like it. Although we have been using only one at a time to save wear and tear.

I think the DA was somewhere around 5700 when I calculated it.

Junk build though still You're lucky it broke 100 and beat the Fiat.

schpenxel

Haha I saw that Fiat

Cool video.

Do you have Z51 gearing?

schpenxel

Yeah, I do have Z51 gearing.. totally sucks for 1/2 mile but I haven't felt like pulling it apart to swap it out

winters97gt

Yeah, it sounded like it. I don't think it's actually bad for the half mile if you can get a 26 Hoosier to hook. I think you could run faster in the half. But where it would kill you would be in the mile. You'd have to run a taller tire with more power than a base/Z06 car with less power.

This is 800hp on 27.4's. You can tell I ran out of room bouncing off the limiter before the traps. But a shift would have killed my mph. This was the first ever 1/2 mile so nobody had a clue what tire/etc to run. If I just raised my limiter 200rpm, I'd probably hit 173.

Hightechcorvette did a video like yours on my nitrous pass, but the clutch wasn't having ~900+tq and wouldn't shift so it never got posted. I'm guesssing you're at ~630-675hp? Sounds great btw

schpenxel

Yeah if I bumped the rev limiter up a little and went with some taller tires 4th would probably work out pretty well. Thats gotta be close, I’d guess mid 600’s RWHP on a realistic dyno, I’m sure it’d break 700 on one of the lose ones. I need to get it on a dyno at some point, I’ve been saying that for like 2 years

Thanks, yeah I’d love to be faster but I’m kind of at the point where it’s faster than most street cars and reliable and hasn’t really costed me that much relatively, so tough to beat that.. so I’ll probably just leave it alone for the foreseeable future. Maybe taller tires on my next set..

In car video from my 195mph pass.
Watch the sway on the big end!

schpenxel

Eek

You splatted the heck out of a bug at 0:47 mark

stevieturbo

Very impressive, what gearbox/ratios are you using ?

I just destroyed 2 T56's over the past 2 weeks both times 5th gear related...some decisions need to be made now ! lol

schpenxel

Too much torque?

stevieturbo

Blasphemy ? lol

We all want more...not less.

schpenxel

Turbos ftw
