I need to find a GS position over in Germany and spend some time over there again. My biggest regret in life is never going to The Ring while I was there for 3 years. I know, as far as regrets, I've been pretty fortunate.


I felt the same after leaving in 09. I did take my RC51 on the hochenheimring though.. Changed my life. Nurburgring is on this summer. [emoji869] need those konis to get here.

I've seen some highway pull videos of high horsepower cars that also seem to show the hood lifting ever so slightly. :eyebulge:

Look at the 50 second mark:

Yeah I get that too. Don't like it so much.. The hood bulge, the door seal.. These things make me think twice about going faster..

Have this issue too as well as heat issues low speed. Been looking for a spare hood to test cutting up or a fiberglass hood either way with large lateral vent.
Serious backpressure under hood. Looked at raising back of hood using spacers to vent more and lower pressure.
Considering vent slot after bumper skin. Remove rad apron and slot front of hood and then slot again after rad and push trailing edge as far down as possible.
look at gt350 hood and venting?

I had huge wind noise at 155mph and I had to back off to about 80 for the car to "reseal". There was a cross wind and the hood lift was beyond scary.

It's the GT electronically limited at 155MPH?
How are you guys running faster? Tuned?
