Burpspeed Version 2: Race Car Build



  172 Race Car
tends to spin up a bit with the drop in the middle of Devils Elbow, short shifting prevents that, sometimes hang onto 3rd.

No Idea on the Honda, sorry

Stock gearstick etc. Just with a yanoo stiff kit. We are careful between 2nd and 3rd, can get crunchy when rushing it

out of interest, when coming out of the hairpin, do you only stay in 3rd for a shot time? are you using the torque of 4th?

and that honda, what power/weight does it have?

also, is that a shortened gear throw, just seems like ages that your off the power during those shifts. or are you being kind to your tansmission?
As Jay says,we tested there and it made no difference to the times with short shifting,and the car is more stable.
We try and be as kind to the car as possible,we are not loaded money wise.

The Honda is just very quick thats all I know.

No just pushing a bit too hard, happened to us both a little at the esses. Turn in when on the brakes a little too much. Handling balance was pretty much spot on.

Car felt great Danny,we connected up the rear arb and it just sharpened up the turn in,but once it was in there was no more trouble from the rear.
As Jay said,we were just pushing as we didn't have a clue at the time where we were position wise.

I enjoyed that last video. Quick reactions on the pitstop to bump start it and get out so quick!

Im looking forward to going too, last year it was a bit of a mare. The car setup was way off and we had a coolant leak in quali. We know Oulton quite well, probably better than any other track we race on so looking forward to giving it a good go now the car works well.

Silly question - can you have an intercom system? So you guys can talk during the race - would be handy relaying info to whoever is driving - is that allowed in your class?

Nothing against it as far as I know.

But it costs money and we dont have any. As far as I know nobody else uses radios

Might be an idea to look into dude :)
