Barc1 and Mitch, those Alphas of yours should be fast. And I like that notchback bet you're in the top 25% this year.

That mustang looks just perfect the way it is, no paint needed.
You guys are making some serious progress. I need to come with some serious engineering now ;) :banana-dance:
Merry Christmas to all.

Just to be sure. Is a lexan interior with these "roll bars" legal? I ran it in the 2017 event.

Dave, I've got the roll bars, I've just got to make sure they run as well as possible before I take them apart again.

First test drive with my two cars, VW pops wheelies and the Firebird is slow.
2017 top cars ran high 5s on my track and the Firebird handles great but is in the low 6s
Firebird 2017 race here Austin/53/6.842 Now 6.3 easy with the higher RPMS, I need more power at low amps.
2nd firdbird test, to much power. spin tires out of the turns. super fast fast fast down the short straight if it grips.
3rd test 2 Rubber, 2 Urethane tires differtent makers. Two of the brands under the 6 second mark. Tires were only slightly trued.

Love the testing notes Austin. I know you will tame the Firebird and Retro's bug won U2 class a few years ago

Nice paint job. Should be quick with the Avant chassis.

Great - BUT...
Accurate reproductions of real cars are encouraged; however, fantasy liveries are allowed and may utilize any paint and decals as long as they have racing numbers (on doors, hood, trunk) and look period correct
Folks - this is a proxy that celebrates this series - not scantily clad women, innuendo, BBS wheels, etc.
Please stay within these parameters.
