Default First day out with the new A&A YSi!

Well I finally got out to a rental this past Friday. Track was okay,weather was warmer than I wanted. I had to detune the car alot to keep it from spinning. Basically I put in a fixed timing curve so I would say I was down a good 100-150 horse(car dyno'd 924 to the wheels). I won't be using Drag Radials next time out-this car needs a full Slick. I made 3 passes pretty much back to back at 9.5's. Put in the 900 rwhp tune and it just blew off the tires. Going to change the tires and get the BETA to control throttle angle from HPT and head back out. Here's the vid-this is detuned to I would estmate around 750 to the wheels:

I'll try to get the other video's too. It was nice to drive home with the AC blasting! I heard the air density was almost 2000 FT that day-it was pretty humid.

I'll have to get out on a good race day with full prep to lay down the 900 rwhp tune.

Another pass, you can see how easy the launch was with no timing.
