08-04-2008 #2Thanks! We did ok. It was a very frustrating weekend for us. We were about 5 seconds off of the pace which we had run there before, but we were on a non-ideal cam setup for the engine this time. We had gone testing there in May and ran a 1:46.xxx but then blew the motor. We re-built another motor, this time a little newer model, but the exhaust cams didn't fit from the old motor and we couldn't get new ones in time. So we had monster intake cams and stock exhaust cams which on a turbo car = a lot of lag. We didn't get boost until 5k rpm with a 7200rpm redline which meant we were waiting for the power to come in at a lot of the turns. This lead to us being about 6 seconds off of our testing time. We are astounded that it slowed us down by that much, especially since the weather conditions were virtually identical for the test day and the time attack. We ran the car in 2 classes, with a best time of 1:52.0xx and got 2nd in Modified RWD and 3rd in Unlimited RWD. So it ended up pretty good, but it is still frustrating to know we could have had much better results if we had run the same times.
