PBIR

[RBS550]

Had a great night at PBIR. Wasn't my best, but considering the 1,100' DA and launching at 1,600+ rpms, it was great.
And seeing old friends again.
BTW I'm in the right lane.

Strong work RB!

What's the final verdict on your pinion support mod? Yay? Nay? Indifferent?

Nice run RB! Thanks for the update, would have been great to have some minus DA!

Thank you Sir.
I say Yay on the mod.
I didn't notice anymore NVH than I already had. When I can launch at or near 4K rpms, I fell confident that the ears will stayed connected to the housing lol
I believe it's a good simple idea for the track abuser, or any variation of this setup.

Your sig says 3.15 gears. Do you have those or the 3.31's now. I'm lost on your gear set swaps. LOL

Great run for only launching at 1600 rpm

I am surprise your are not lighter than 3695 lbs with the Watson k member, ultra lightweight brakes and stuff :shrug: Must be the hitch

I'm not the biggest driver out there, but 200 lbs. of that is me and I still have the stock seats. I think I can get just under 3,600 lbs. without destroying the car. Eventually I'll get a 6 point roll bar and that will throw weight back in, chrome moly of course.

Unfortunately a lot of weight is added with the hitch,I looked into one added 52lbs :eyebulge: And extra weight for half shafts-IRS parts D/S loop and the list goes on with beefing up parts and not much weight loss for K member and other parts to offset weight increase with needed improvements :headbonk:
