Another Wreck, another Race Car.....

I'm entered in the PI sprint this Sunday.

I don't think this gearbox is right so I've swapped in box out of white.

If you look back at white's old videos you'll see that the RPM drop in 5th is around 1400 RPM which is correct for a 0.91 5th gear.

This means that I'm also back on the wavetrac so I'll have a more direct comparison of the two diffs in the same car.

I'm pretty decided on a proper clutch style diff for the 02A when I get around to it.

I hope to discuss this with you tomorrow, Peter. I'm hoping to leverage off your experience when it comes time for me to get a TBD or LSD.

I really need to spend more time behind the wheel, my technique needs a lot of improving.

Weather today was pretty crappy in the morning so I sat a few rounds out and pushed hard in the afternoon.

Getting pretty consistent 2.00 times, I need to man up and turn in faster to turn 1.

This old gearbox is much better, no synchro issues and the correct 5th gearing, shifts really nicely.

I prefer the wavetrac over the peloquin. It saved me a couple of times today where the peloquin would have turned me around.



More later.

I got to try the heated windscreen today. It's awesome!

It clears the screen super fast with the need for any blowers.

Took less than a minute to clear a screen you couldn't see though.

Glad to hear this, My 16V box equipped with a wavetrack will soon be on its way here Car is looking magic Pete.
