Lateral-g Forums - Project "Payback"

Ya, I have a big block not some weeny little LS engine. :rofl: I run all my autocrosses in 2nd. I rev it to 6800 which is about 80mph. The torque curve is so good that it works well at 2500 as well. I didn't have much traction out there today. I ran the El Toro road race in 3rd gear and never shifted out of it once. The linear power is hard to beat for what I'm doing. You need to get out and do some autocrosses and road races. You'll be hooked. Where else can you go as fast as you want without getting a speeding ticket or killing yourself? You have no clue what that car will do until you take it off road. Trust me...

I ran well but was surprised how little power I could use once I got out there. It was certainly more technical than I expected. They always have good set ups and a great group of guys and gals. I decided to skip the afternoon and relax at home. Makes me want to charge the A/C!

It definitely wasn't one of the fastest tracks I've run. I'd guess nothing over 70mph.

VERY COOL!! Looked like you were kicking some serious asphalt there.:wow:
I like the new camera angle as well.:thumbsup:

Camera placement made it easier for me to see the cones. With my bad eyesite the last videos made it hard to see the cones going as fast as you were,and thats what its all about. The car looks like its running great.

Todd,
What on the G bar is modified? I tried some random searching through your thread, but I couldn't find the info in the 150+ pages.

Did you ever get your rear

pads in?

Now that you have some miles on them, how are the XP10's on the front?

I haven't got around to it. I've got alot going right now. The xp10's haven't squeaked yet and have more cold bite. Those rear pads aren't going to do my much good with the knockback anyway. I'm going to try the 1" bore master soon.

get a full floater

what's another $12-$1500 when you are in this deep. LOL

When you have time, I will tell you how to spend $8000 to get 2 more inches of rubber on each side.
