Thanks for the help.
I'm geared 16x48 (65' straights) my clutch shoes 2 blues 2 silver and my 2013 is on the way. Would I be better served with 2058 pipe and .09 clutch springs or more aggressive clutch shoes?
I was the fastest 21 but the 2 cars that out qualifyed me were a OS 28 (4.5's)and stock Sirio 27 (4.8)Dirt Oval motor. I could run into and threw the corners with these guys but those motors just were .2to.4 faster a lap. I ran 5.0 fast lap and TQ 4.5 fast lap. Racing oval that is the kiss of death.
I have .1 to .2 behind in chassis setup I'm behind, I will have those chassis changes my car is stock but the motor needs .2-.3 to get on pace with the best drivers in west
I was 1 second per lap slower before I changed to B5 and Losi. I know B5 will be super competive on a loose track but 2tracks in our series are loose dirt 2 tracks are HP drive the car as hard as it will go the car doesn't get sideways on entry exit no wheel spin. Hammer down.
