RMCR? The engine tune is good, I think. No problems there, yet.
Still working on the suspension set up. It got better throughout the week end, but still a bit of oversteer on corner exit. Suspension tweeks made that better as the day went on. Tire temps are close, but not where I want them. The car handles really well. Not as fast of the Cobra, of course, but it handles better. I did a few 1:46 laps.
I think it will take me most of the season to get the suspension where it needs to be. Then I can start working on more power.

Yeah, I told them to stop it about there. No sense beating up the equipment just yet. The HP curve was just starting to flatten out; peak looks like it's right about 6,000. But you can see the torque curve started to fall off already.
IIRC, I did use a Melling pump. I considered the ported LS6 pump. But I'v been using Melling for so many years with good results, that I just decided to continue that trend.
