EVO Flybye - Permission to buzz the tower

At the track last week, and a buddy shot a quick clip of my car coming around turn 9 at Pacific Raceways. Reminded me of the Top Gun line " permission to buzz the tower - negative ghost rider the pattern is full".....

Yeah - it's running pretty good these days. Lots of fun to be at a point where I'm not wrenching on it between sessions at the track or dealing with a whole list of things to re-work before the next track outing. Took a couple years to get it all sorted out to where it is now.

There is such a huge difference between having a car that can make some street pulls vs being able to be pinned at WOT for 20 mins solid and then do that over and over again. Along with things like making room for tires/wheels when your suspension/car is loaded at over 1.2 G's.

I think my favorite thing is how it sounds when the car is approaching the corner apex, and you still can't see it - it's like a swarm of angry bees growing loader.

Did you play around with your gearing? I find for me before turn 9 I have to short shift to 4 so I'm not bouncing the rev limiter there

I rip through 3rd coming out of 8, and yeah kinda short shift into 4th before 9.

Here's in-car from last year.
