[TPR] Forest?

[David in Durango]

Boost is the boss.

My favorite drive goes from 6600 to over 10,000, back to 9000 then up to 11000 and back to 9300.  try that without boost!  Now that I'm running a V8, I stay away from the altitude.

As far as SSCC - I've run 4 ORR events and have a trophy for every one . . . . not bad for NO navigator?

So, if you insist on living on the beach - get some boost.

        I live at 37 feet above sea level and my car (2011 370Z) is modified to have an extra 50+ HP which I lose at SSCC - so effectively I leave the starting line at about 5 HP more than stock. It still takes almost 3/4 mile to get up to 120 MPH, wait for my average speed to get on target (currently 100 MPH, will go faster when I trophy 1st place) and then stay there :-) And yes 100 MPH isn't fast, but the SSCC is about being accurate...

          5000 feet is low altitude for me - my stuff does run much better down there . . . .

                  Supercharging/turbocharging is a definite plus at SSCC - as the course is almost all above 5000 feet altitude and you lose a good chunk of HP up there... Depending on what class JB would be running in it will become more important to have extra HP.

                    Forrest should be on the "other" email list.  I saw the parts from his car at the track - root beer car?

                    IMO, one needs gears and not power.  

                    Can't remember the guy's name - 5lbs of boost and he loved it!

                    cheers,

                    or try forrest

                            Anyone have a contact email for Forest?  After seeing he supercharged Cleveland in Reno, I've got to find out if all those parts are available and how I can get them.  Looks like the perfect SSCC machine.
