THill was great.... very hot 80* at 8am... 100*+ from 11am on. I saw Paul (Silkworm) out there breaking in his new motor and we dualed for a lap in Group 4..... ;). It was fun and his car certainly handles.
I battled with Evan Ginsberg in his fully prepared race C4 Vette with 500hp+, lexan everything, ducted everything, 315's up front 335's out back for 4 laps or so... I assume he was pushing it but he never got past me... I was very happy with my car and IMO I wouldn't change a thing. Ferodo DS3000 pads are great for the track with zero brake fade and the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 285/30/18 tires are incredible once up to temp. My car had no understeer, no bumpsteer, and could easily have slight oversteer induced which I experimented with. Very well balanced after the LS1 swap. 2800lbs 49.9% front/50.1% rear.... I had a race car driver pilot it for a session and he was very very impressed. Gobs of power he said and handled great. I did 5400rpm in 5th down the long straightaway. 3:90 gears, .75 ratio in 5th... :) Speedo no workie! Sonny- email me: gnx7@hotmail.com -Mark |
Glad you got it going Mark. Sounds like a great day. Saw your post on Torq. someone posted 136mph base on your info.
What did you wind up using for front castor. How was the steering? Niles |
The steering without the pump (looped rack) felt great. No bumpsteer whatsoever. The car rips in the corners...
Front: -2* 6.1* caster zero toe Rear: -1.3* 1/16 combined toe 2800lbs total (no spare/jack/rear carpet/bins/divider) .4993% front l690 r708 .5007% rear l712 r690 With me in the car: 2943lbs cross weights 1471/1472 Someone mentioned the speed at 5400rpm in 5th was 136mph. |
i am definately going on the june 25-26,my car is be ready by that time
Sonny |
Very fast car Mark... I thought you were just running a standard 13B TT, didn't realize you had the big 'un in there til you flew by me going into 9.
Those who think V8=slow track car, Mark's car will prove that concept wrong real fast. Paul |
So where are all those cool silkworm vids?
|
LOL, not til next month, I was breaking the motor in, wasn't trying to go all out.. Had some fun passing people on starts, they just weren't willing to stick their car where I could go, but overall, pretty boring ;) I left the camera off. End of June should have something new for ya ;)
Paul |
