[QUOTE="dynajeep, post: 679449, member: 7027"] Been a rough couple weeks of racing for sure. The race at Hawk pride was my own fault and all I had to do is hold the steering wheel strait and was coasting to a first place. Like Croes said i didn't lock in the steering wheel all the way and paid for it. Damage report on that was broken wheel and a bent lower link up front. A call to Wide Open Design and he had me one the following day. (Was going to be done racing for the year) then a spot at the Race 2 riches opened up and figured why not..... Wife and I had a get away for the weekend away from the kids so that was nice. The race and event was unbelievable, so many runs, so many racers, so many spectators. I drew 49 out of 51 and the hill defiantly deteriorated through out the day. Not an excuse and had a line picked out. Had some last minute guidance and changed my mind and thought I was going the conservative route. Well I didn't get left far enough and took a bad bounce and come rolling down. Damage report 2 wheels, brake mount, brake caliper, and a trailing arm. Motor is an absolute monster, runs and starts flawless. So much torque, I don't need to rev it out at all. I just short shift it and let it do it's thing. Numbers wise it made a couple hp & tq shy of 400 to the wheels through the th400 and since the case is made for a rear engine it was in 4 hi with the front driveshaft off. He figures about 50% loss through the drivetrain and tires. Justin the guy behind the dyno about jumped off the dyno the first pop. (Wish I had it on video) I tried getting him to do a panty dropper run but he wouldn't lol. All this is on 8psi of boost. After the motor is broke in good he wants it back and try to get the 13psi its got in it. [/QUOTE]
