another day at the track


Did some test and tune last night. Things didn't go so well. First 2 passes the car spun off the line but went straight the rest of the way down the track. For some reason the motor would start breaking up anything after 5000rpm in second and third gear. The rest of my passes the car didn't go straight at all. 2 times the car made a right turn on the back tires and almost ended up in the other lane. Despite all the problems I did run a new best which was a 10.15 at 132 mph. I'm still not happy with the performance but at this point I'm sick of working on it and am going to take a break for a while.

Good deal, clear your head and come back to it another day. If tire pressure was equal, what do you think is making you veer right?

Absolutely not! You can never have too much power.
