Dec 14th for the need2speed.com track rental. I have finals till the 10th, then right after my final i'm putting the second fuel pump in and maybe make a couple passes at the 1/8 to make sure everything is cool.

Looks good

Was there a traction problem in 1st?

Are you using slicks?

yes and yes, I was working on tire pressure changes, but I was supposed to watch a fight and I left before I got the right pressure in the tires.

I do not know much about turbos, and was wondering about boost at the starting line with a clutch car??? Are there any issues with that?
What RPM are you leaving at?
Are you using an adjustable clutch (low base pressure, slipper)?

Thanks ---Bill.

I'm at zero boost off the line b/c there is no load on the motor. I'm launching off the limiter at like 6600. Just a regular twin disk w/ steel flywheel.
