Default New-To-Forum With Track Vids...

First off, how's it going? I'm new to the forum, thought this might be a decent way to intro myself... But anyways, here are the videos... I'll post the non-hd URL's and let you guys decide whether you want to wait around for the HD or not.

Car pulls 2.0 short times consistently on NT555R's, I've yet to get the stubborn car into the 1's 60 ft wise...

Thanks!

Here's a couple motor shots. I need to get a chance to get out and take some better ones for you sometime.

I think those 3.73's are sort of doing him in. 4.30's would be getting 11.70's.....
Oh well.....

turbo cars dont like low gears. most people will say to run 3.27 on a turbo motor. the higher load on the motor will cause the turbo to spool faster

Turbo is P-trim exhaust (.68ar), compressor side is .70ar, IIRC...

To be honest I'm running out of gear in 4th at the traps. I need a 3.55 gear or so if I'm gonna be letting her wrap out like that. This motor isn't gonna spin faster than 6k; little more longevity that way...

Car used to be a nitrous eater, so 3.73's were right 'til I got bored with that...
