Carbon_Bullet Posted September 18, 2016 Author Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) RWYB at Santa pod yesterday , was a fun day out , I feel a little disappointed with results, the track at the start line was greasy an slippery as fooook! I get better times on the open road. I did 4 runs, best being a 12.7677 at 125mph I did 2 runs on full boost and 2 runs full boost with launch control, launch control helped a little but I ended up with a slower time. The start line needs to be redone !! I was running 1.8 bar boost with 60/40 octane / meth Burlo Edited September 18, 2016 by Carbon_Bullet (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pudsey Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Excellent pictures and some good video. But what's going on with the Defi Rev counter? Doesn't seem to be very accurate judging by lite in to the engine revs, and the speed of the car with no wheel spin. It's off the scale. Love what you have done with the car though, and congratulations on the feature success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
