DD25 - Gateway International Raceway




DD25 was a blast as usual. 3rd gear was insane. But I realized 3 things that must change soon

1. The engine is REAL tired...rebuild in the works
2. The car was too low, I hate saying it, but my transitions were wayyy fucked because of this (I think). I ended up raising the car about an inch on saturday and the few runs I did felt much better. However there was something awesome about throwing it into the first turn and seeing smoke roll off my FRONT fenders haha.
3. I need a higher final drive...my gearing is too long. Too little power, paired with gearing that was in between 2nd and 3rd the whole time amounted to piss poor driving.

it felt fine to me, just like i didn't have enough power...but a couple people told me that something didn't look right. I'm trying to get film from t2 to see what's goin on.
