have you ever compared your times to other cars at the track? you should be able to compare your times to reg american iron cars which run on r888, and are limited to 9.5lbs per hp which works out to be around 360 rwhp on a 3000lb car, i think there running down in the 2:02 to 2:05

Right now I'm targeting my times toward Z06 Vettes. We all know it comes down to driver but when I ran at 2:15 my previous track day at Buttonwillow before I ran 2:10's there was a Z06 that ran 2:05's on Hoosiers so I chose 2:10 as my target time.

The same day I ran my 2:10's there was a Z06 that was practicing and he ran SCCA T1 class and he ran 2:01's on Hoosiers so my new target time is around 2:06's on R888's.

Same thing I run for track tires, they looked huge in the pics. As you know track time, you have plenty of power, now its just cleaning up problem corners and running consistent. Not easy by all means. :thumbsup:

in my blue 69, i used to run on r888 with 430 crank hp, i would run what american iron cars would run at all the tracks I ran at. 2:11 at watkins glen, 1:0- at lime rock etc.
my 2ng gen aix car is much faster.
rodger, cant wait to here your times.

Have you tried Iracing yet. My times at Watkins and lime rock are similar. It is definitely not real racing but it is great practice and entertainment.

I'm looking forward to running my car at Buttonwillow in Dec. 2:10 does not seem to be lightning fast for 13CW configuration. I remember low 2.0?? something in my mustang years ago.

If I can manage to catch up around here, I may just see you there.

Just take it easy on my or I might have to put a fender on that shiny black paint to maintain my local reputation at the track. Just ask the kids at the go kart track they know all about me.....:D
