Greg, it didn't even puke all over the track either while being tried and tested. Hmmmmm! I wonder what the difference is between the before....Sutton built and the after...Speedtech built. Can't quite place my finger on it, but something's surely different about the car.:EmoteClueless:

WAY cool!
I saw one small flaw with the video... it's only 18 seconds long. I even turned up the sound and everything. :(

I think we got some good Vbox video we will get sorted out and posted ASAP.
also some good quality camera video from on top of the trailer, that we will post hang tight

The car did Exactly what it was supposed to. the tire break in procedure is a bit involved to get them right. 5 extra PSI moderate warm up lap with 10 second a lap decreases in lap time. so between that and Jay not ever driving the car on track previous, it was good temp stayed at 205 oil pressure was good. the Autometer dash needs some programming for sure.

It sure sounds good coming down the front straight rowing gears and the instant gear change............ is probably worth the price of admission!!

Talked to JJ and we will send him the shocks this week to dyno so we have a good idea of where we are. do some set up with shocks and springs and try it again.

We may look at some vents in the fenders behind the front tires to try and pull more heat out of the engine bay, we did not have the full belly pan on the car as it needed to be redone

Nice project save Blake :thumbsup:

Poor Jay, surely he'll be spoiled for life by that sequential box once testing is complete.
