Well after about a month of work putting in new carpet at my local indoor track, I was able to get my Wildfire on the rug for some laps this evening. I made only small changes to the setup I had for outdoor asphalt, biggest change i made was the rear springs. I softened them up a bit due to the lack of traction on the carpet as it is brand new. Traction began to come up dramatically towards the end of the evening and tomorrow is our first race day so traction should be way high. The car was aggressive yet smooth, and very fast, 5 10th faster then anybody else in the house today, Many of the guys had been there all day, I had school so was unable to be there until evening. The car is so good out of the box it gives a great starting point for everything. Will get back tomorrow night or sunday about tomorrows race.
