Very true , I sure as hell won’t be spinning mine to over 8k , in my opinion it’s a very bad idea and is only in play due to the tq management limiting gains at normal revs ..... won’t last on a track over revving under hard use . The only reason for Ford choosing 100 psi oil pressures is they...

You can actually see his lap times in this video on his AIM solo lap timer .... they are not fast and wouldn’t beat a good driver in a Stock civic Type R much less a GT3RS .

Can’t be bad gas , goes right for its broken !!! Lol

Don’t think that’s likely with a 1.65 60 ft .

You could not post at all too until you had everything ready . Don’t get saucy because people ask lol. I still don’t understand how you don’t know the details of the runs you did . All we want to know is the slips , mods , tire and octane . I will gladly share details of my road course setup on...

You can always do both ..... What technical things were you not aware of on your car that you were driving and modded ?

:facepalm:

How did it run ?

At this point in the game there are no unspoken for allocations for CFTP cars with the exception of dealers wanting 50k over..... The car has gotten very positive reviews so there won’t be any base models sitting on lots anytime soon either . Dealers lie all the time about allocations , if they...

The revised Gt350 was in the competition and came in second.

Nice ! Is that with tune and xpipe on pump gas ? You still hitting the strip this week ?

Lightning lap last year Zr-1 had cage and Sparcos as you can see in this picture from Car and Driver.......

It ran after the full repaving 100% certain . It ran in late 2015 after the big repaving that happened in 2014 so it took full advantage of the widening . The facts stand as they are that the motortrend CFTP 500 time is faster than the factory ACR time on the same VIR course.

You obviously have come to a conclusion irregardless of what anyone shows you . That was after the first repaving , after oak tree went down that curbing was changed additionally which does make a difference yes but not a full second . The fact still stands that an ACR has not run a faster time...

The ACR’s time at VIR Full on it’s track record tour was 1:57.x . So yes the CFTP definitely is faster at VIR full than that time .

As far as I could tell the only identifiable pictures from the outside that had a cage showed the CFTP , both are red so no way to be sure I suppose with the inside only pics . My point stands though the cage didn’t make the car faster , just safer . Certainly didn’t make my lap times faster...

Nope not the first , the GT2RS recently tested had one as well . It is becoming needed safety wise now that cars are reaching these speeds . This isn’t a E30 BMW , the cage has zero effect on the chassis performance as it is already immensely rigid , and it does add a significant weight penalty...

I think warranty is out the window with rpms over 8k lol. I would rather make the same power at 7500 with a pulley. Will be a lot more reliable long term than running extra aggressive timing at high rpms and you will get more midrange .

Again I’m super happy with how the 500 performed and I’m buying a CFTP , but um the C7 Z06 Z07 already is faster at VIR full than the CFTP ..... Jim Mero their development engineer ( not a pro but fast ) ran a 1:53.x in it at VIR full . I wouldn’t go throwing the gauntlet at the not finished C8...

Given we have an n=1 I think you have a solid shot ;) ! Good weather and I’m sure it will be a negative DA for you equaling max powah , only challenge will be hooking it all up ! Looking forward to it , good luck .
