I heard you have numbers - what did it make (chassis or engine dyno)?

Have a great time at VIR - have fun, be safe, be fast (and don't break it)!

Hug for Nadine.

PS: Congrats to you both...a long time coming! Get those harnesses in there...

VIR this weekend is our only plan at the moment. Every weekend through the end of the year we already have plans so not looking like we'll be doing anything else with the cars.

Bob & Nadine looking good at VIR today, both getting in 5 sessions in perfect weather. Kermee ran great for me 4 sessions but got a funny vibe, so didn't run the last one...hit the rev limiter pretty consistently at the end of the straights, making good power but gotta figure out the vibe.

That sounds so good and looks to be handling good too. It appears to be a very fast track with some big long straights to wind up some pretty decent speed. I did notice that there is quite a gap between 4th and 5th which must be a little frustrating. Thanks for posting though, in car videos nearly put you in the seat ( found myself leaning just watching)
