Default first trackday in the RA

not a patch on the saff,
was a bit of a disater really,first two sessions fine(needs more power)
the third session we managed to blow the lamda boss out of the headers
and found a crack on the weld of the header(game over)

so then went out in a bmw z3 with a 6.8 v8 corvette engine 460 bhp (as a passenger)very quick car and handled superb.

then decided to take out our evo 7,did 8 laps and got black flagged for noise 99.5 db on a 98db day

here are some pics any way

everything pete....
back to the drawing board
a remap and some bigger injectors needs to be at least 340ish
even the brother in law was hard to catch in his red top corsa with r1 carbs
and full slicks and stripped..lol

Thing is mate, the RA box is SHITE after about 120odd, they,re just screaming for help down the straights, that,s where it,ll lose on the saff hands down.

A map will help for sure, some injectors too, What ECU is it running bask??

Looks blinking ace on track

You always get teething problems on track 1st time. Least you know what to do to make it better and better.

Good on the Evo for being a nice stand in too
