Ohhh Yeah...sweet driving! Nice to reel in the Jag with his power... his weight finally gets the better of him. Love the pitch of your engine, sounds much better than mine...guess you're revving to near 8000...is the trans an MSX gearset?

2.4, twin plug, I don't build engines so not sure of exact c/r.

Its a high strung race motor has small powerband like a 2 stroke, revs to 8k

At the 26 second mark, there is a white sign on the right of the tack. You come onto this straight at about 55mph. the straight is about 4300 feet long. Top speed is dependent on how much motor and gearing you have. But to go past that white sign wide open with 914 brakes is against every principle of self preservation.....it takes balls. Commendable driving skills!!!!! A good teener is still a weapon in the hands of a "shoe."

To get an idea on how quick a car is on the straights, I often time how long it takes between T7 to 10a (at each apex)...your car is actually fairly quick. I am intrigued to know what your PB is at RA? I am going to guess it is between 1:33 and 1:35...and the time is???

Jamie,

Good meeting you at Daytona Classic 24.
What happened during the enduro in T5?

After the pit stop my co driver lost the brakes, pedal went to the floor. Not sure what happened, assume that the fluid boiled during the pit stop? Never had that happen before?! But should be ready for the Classic 12 at Sebring! Leading points!
