Great day and super fun track. This was my best and final run today. Car is getting better and better. :thumbsup: I might be improving a little too.

Nice work Todd. Looks like a pretty fast track. Scorpion helmet? I have a EXO700 for the bike, the "Crackhead" model.:rofl:

That was a nice run!!:cheers:

I was hitting about 70-75 in a couple spots. I'm sure most think that's wind crackling but that's my rev limiter down the first high speed spot. :rofl: I shifted into third once, to be hones it was just to fast for that section and I got in way to hot into the the first slalom. So I just bounced it off the limiter. That S section was like two u turns at a stop light. It was so damn tight. I ended up taking my lumps after trying to fishtail and downshift and just coasted through and that's where I picked up a little time. One of the event runners said I have the Street Modified guys a little worried. :thumbsup: I'll post up some other videos later, they take over an hour a pice with this quality. You should see them on my screen not shrunk by youtube.

Big blocks can handle!

This video is a little off the pace but thought it was an exciting run. It's right at the end of the first heat and I had shifted into third. Guessing pushing 80 down the straight. Tires seem fine.

Kelli flops around over there like a fish but I don't seem to have a problem with moving around. I didn't get the rear bar on yet Frank. I did put in a different front bar and make some major front shock adjustments. Those two plus the new tapered axles and improved brakes made for a good run.

Nah....no trailer. It's only about a 30-40 minute drive to the speedway and we go through Lake Mead National park on the way home. Makes for a great day.

Steve, I'm ready when you are buddy. I still have plans for more upgrades but that will never end. We have another race on Dec 14th. Drive Penny over and we'll race and then shoot. :thumbsup: ;)

What's your rev limiter set at, Todd?

Vegas69
11-30-2009, 06:19 AM
I have it at 6k which is where my motor makes peak HP. I keep forgetting to order some new pills for my msd box. I did borrow a 7k when I chassis dynoed so I know that's peak power. I shouldn't be shifting at that point anyway. Next time I order from Jegs or Summit.:D Probably go with a 6300-6500.

Maybe my speakers Are playing games on me but in the first video it sounds like some " And Justice for ALL" playing on the stereo. Looks like fun

Actually that's Pantera, Walk but I have Metallica justice for all in the lineup. Some guys drink energy drinks, I play 90's heavy metal.:D It seems to keep me focused and I just drive!

Well the lick at 37 seconds sounds just like " and justice for all " either way, good driving music always helps with any time slip.

I can't wait to get the Chassisworks Car together so I can do the same.

Nice video Todd! :thumbsup: That sound brings me back to following you through the twisties by your house! Nothing like a big block full tilt on the limiter. Maybe we can do it all over again next year.
