Most of the cars being talked about are shop owned and sponsored vehicles.

Just got the call from the LMR guys. Just made first pass. Very easy on the boost out of the hole. The car started to spin the tires down track as the turbo spooled up. Otherwise car handled great, motor sounds solid. turned an easy 8.0 @ 175mph on a 1.3x 60'. They should get another pass in tonight hopefully.

I'll definitly be checking this thread tomorrow for updates. So LMR is limited to a 91.5mm turbo to be even with Boostlogic? Do they have to run going backwards too?

LMR is running in a 91mm turbo class. The true 10.5 class at the clash of the titans requires everyone to run a max tire size of 10.5" and a max turbo size of 91mm.

If they want to run backwards, that's up to them. However, i don't think they have much chance of winning the class if they follow your advice and run backwards down the track.

Car looked and sounded great. The track wasn't all that but it looked to be better than it usually is

Ahh I see. The backwards thing was a joke as in another stipulation that Boostlogic put in. That was before I relized it was a class and not boostlogic makin the rules.
