Last night I made some passes at the local midnight madness event. Now this is the 2nd and 3rd pass on the car muchless engine new combo. They didn't prep the track for crap since 95% of the people there where on street tires or mud terrains.
Race weight was right at 3100 lbs. I had extra gas in the car to try and get it to hook.
I was fighting traction issues all night. Best i could 60ft was a 1.73 spinning in 1st gear at part throttle. When it shifted into 2nd gear it would spin more. On the data log it showed, top of 1st gear at 48mph, it shifting into 2nd and the mph dropping back down to 36mph.
I pretty sure this combo is good for 1.3 60ft with a larger and better tire.
