Ouch. Heavy setup. Had a 17" zr1 out back when I ran my old lt1 TA with 17" WS6 wheels up front

I had seen the "professional products" intake before and always assumed it would be absolute garbage

Yeah I need to take it back to my tuner and make some changes then.

And the oil leak mod.

Your car digs good though!

I know it's no where as good as a fast, but depending on where you look it's either as good as an ls6 or slightly better up top

Hahaha, still can't find it. No dots in the driveway, oil level is where it's supposed to be. Thanks!

I'm surprised at how heavy the race stars are too. I bet the welds all around would get me another tenth. But they were literally about twice as much per rim more than my polish race stars. I was looking at around 2g just for wheels

Idk why your tuner would make the 1-2 **** earlier on a 60e car, when I tune 60e cars I always raise the 1-2 shift to help with that terrible drop from 1-2

Idk either, but the first time he messed with it, he set all the shifts at 6000 rpm. Not sure if that was an accident or what.

What does your car spin to?

Nice! Jake, your car truly does run strong to keep up with Cwarta. I have seen his other races and his car runs hard.
Good job, guys on meeting up and running!

The roll race was especially good. Both cars stayed right there. I think if Jake were to get some gears (assuming he gets traction), I think the digs would be close also.

3.42 gears is really the sweet spot for an auto car. Good runs overall. Went as expected.

Car went 11.9@114 untouched from lastnight, 35mph ish head wind.

I went a best of 11.87@117 with some tune work, but could only muster a 2.x 60' after the track was oiled down from an engine letting go
