Here is a vid from the Sunday race. Had a hard time dealing with the 95f temps, but finished the race with nothing broken.

Is the camera angle to compensate for body-roll?

Is it time to try another engine?

hahaha yeah I was eyeballing the camera alignment when I was getting belted up, kinda surprised I actually got it that close.

Don't really want to do another motor swap but it really could have used an extra 5 hp it was such a dog.

Its not like you have to rush it, you have till Oct.

Good point, but hey I'm am getting pretty good at swapping these motors out. Have it down to about 6 hours now.


Did some tweaking to the rear suspension, got the toe as close to 0 as I could and tweaked the rear camber a bit. The rear felt very planted and all the high speed stability issues I was having at Bwillow didn't seem to show up. Although I was still 2.5s off the lap record, I did manage to beat all of the previous times Honda set there last year by at least half a second so I'm pretty proud of myself for that.

Finished up my last runoffs qualifying race this weekend and I'm officially going to the runoffs.

The last runoff qualifying race was this weekend at the newly repaved ButtonWillow Raceway, its a pretty interesting and fun track, but with this weekends temps soaring well into the 100+ degrees it made driving pretty tricky.

First race on Sat I manage to set a lap record at ButtonWillow even though I was stuck behind a much slower car. I figure if there wasn't any traffic I could have knocked another second or two off the lap time. All in All I'm pretty happy with myself for my Sat result.


On Sunday I decided to switch things up and ran with the big boys in H Production in a horribly underprepped and overweight BSpec car. The inspectors were laughing pretty bad when I went up to weigh and came in almost 400lbs overweight. Even with a car not setup to run HP I managed to snatch 2nd place, but my bad qualifying time got me stuck behind a slower driver which kept me a ways off first place. One incident on track almost took me out for good but I managed to avoid the hit with little space to spare.



Gotta say I couldn't be happier with how well the car performed this weekend, now all I gotta do is repeat the performance next month at the Runoffs
