Unfortunately, we had to postpone the trip to Texas. We simply ran out of time to test before the race, and that is a long haul to ride untested. So we're planning to attend the Ohio Mile, which has 4 events this year. We'll be tested and ready.

Maxton had the nostalgia aspect, but when your racing on it the uneven pavement and slight curve to the track made speeds over 180mph interesting. Texas is nice but the lack of safety requirements is kinda a bad thing. The Ohio mile's first outting is next weekened so noone has any experience on that track yet.

Curious as too how much power you are actually wanting to make? Main reason is wouldnt it be better too put a small turbo on there for what you are trying to do (say 106 or so, maybe even a 98) since obviously the LS motor wont max the 118 out... And for spool time of course among other reasons... JW. Also wondering why a big single and not twins..
