Will have complete breakdown of data within a couple of days, but here is a comparison of power from Mayhem to Hellfire.
In sticking with Mark's theme of 'more power + less mass' it is certainly directionally correct.
Some statics of Hellfire engine:
Average TQ from 2100-6800 RPM = 871 #/FT
Average HP from 2100-6800 RPM = 726 HP
Peak TQ: 950
Peak HP: 931
For fair comparison, compared to Mayhem over same range (3900-6800 RPM):
Mayhem Hellfire
AVG TQ 765 847
AVG HP 772 852
More to come - much data to process.....

For those of you who don't know Dave Mikels he is the brains behind my power and success for over 24 years. He did the engine in our FSAE car back in 1990 and 1991. I did the chassis and Dave did the engine. Huh same as now. Dave is also a great driver so we have been a good team for a few years. We were roommates at Rolla, MO
The years I did well at OUSCI it was Dave in my window telling where to pick up time in the Auto-X. Not my best event but I can do when I need to with a good spotter.
So we are at again. I think Dave will get it all sorted out! Looks good so far. I'm going to need more chassis to put all this power down.
