As far as the race I had a lot of fun. Jason had a 11.0 and I had a 11.1 fast lap so I was on pace with him. The main was a lot of fun. I cannot express how nice the car drove with truly stupid amounts of horsepower! I had very little tire wear in the front so I know the car was really working right.
I never would of thought

Looks like a TC spec

I tore down my car after running it on carpet awhile back. Everything is now back together and ready for our state race at Kissimmee, Fl It will be my first time running this on asphault and at that track. Anyone has an idea of a rollout for the komodo?

Roll it out at a 2.0-2.1. That is a big track and a tall gear will be rewarded.

I ran a 57mm sunday on a 140'50' track and it was really fast. Just a couple tenths slower than Jason and his 5.5.

The 10.5 was pretty quick. 4-5 tenths was about the spread.that was pretty impressive. It seems very managable and good top end. The roll out was dead on. 57mm is it then. The car was real quick with that gearing and good punch

Yeah, right at 57mm. I ran a 34/88 with a 1.85 rear tire when I was running it.
