I sold Malitude years ago and I think it is now in Kentucky.

Looking the data Hellfire lacks forward bite.

Max Lat about 1.1 G
Max Decel about 1.3 G
Max Accel about .85 G

What to build next? I'm not sure. If I want to play in the OUSCI deal I need to wait for the new rules

I really like Hellfire and '69 Camaros. I think I'll enjoy doing nothing for awhile and fix rock chips......

Looking at the data AWD would fix forward bite. :headspin:

Looks like a mushroom cloud... :lol:

Sounds like a plan, enjoy it for a while!!! :drive:

Awd
 

Hi Mark
I was thinking about putting awd in a 69 Camaro.
Looks like the trailblazer ss system would be the way to go.
I'm sure you would have no problem fabbing up mounts for struts.
Is it possible to have awd and use the new Z/28 struts?
That is what I want to see in the next Stielow Camaro :headspin:

I thought it was a bug on Hellfire's windshield after a 150 mph straight away!

This is what I was referring to, when I made my comment about hoping its a Camaro...

That's 0-60 in 3.2 if you could do .85 from a standing start. I'm guessing that sample was from the road course.

Realistically you shook the car down twice(?) before sending it to vegas. I would really like to see you dial the car in, if you can keep it long enough. What can you do about forward acceleration? Spring change, shock tuning, wider wheels, perhaps a taller tire if it doesn't mess with the ABS......they're never finished.

It is geeky engineer Friday. The graph below is the tractive effort curve from LVMS. Longitudinal acceleration vs vehicle speed.

The data shows I'm accelerating at about 0.85 G at 60 MPH and still pulling 0.6 G at 100 MPH. On the flip side I can generate 1.3 G decel at 120 MPH.

Just fun to look at the data.

On the temperature side this is the data from my last run the air temp was 85 degrees F.

After 15 minutes the water was at around 220 F and the oil was around 270 F. To road race a 900 ish car and to keep it cool is tough. I'm very happy with the data.

Looking at the data the temps are becoming steady state and they will stabilize below peak excursion limits.

Once I get out of the throttle look how fast it cools!
