[QUOTE="Lil ugly, post: 749408, member: 3188"] It did well overall as far as handling went. It turns like a battleship but I expected that as i designed it for rear steer but dont have it yet. I need to work on tuning the ORI's. I designed the buggy for a three inch lower stance. however I have the older ORI's that need to run at the 50/50 droop to compression. All of that was expected and known prior to the ride. Two unknown issues that showed up. The tranny was running hot, around 200 or so. I checked fluids etc and could not get it to cool down. When I went thru the tranny cooling system the next day the fan would not work. it worked at the park when I checked on it. Maybe it was intermittent? At any rate I am fixing fan and adding another plate cooler. Probably add a deeper pan also for more fluid. The other issue is it is choking out when i come off the throttle at low RPM's. Not sure if this is a tune issue or a tranny issue. I have to dig deeper into this. I believe the tune is looking for MAF/IAT and I dont have them on the buggy so it may be the culprit. [/QUOTE]
