SCCA Qualifying at High Plains Raceway
Просмотров 65Год назад
What does it look like during a multi-class qualifying session in SCCA? Have a look at this quick session at High Plains Raceway to see how sometimes finding a clean lap can be quite difficult with slower traffic. Track and time management are critical to ensuring you put yourself in the best position in the starting grid!
Reverse Field SCCA Start! Immediate off track excursion!
Просмотров 33Год назад
Have a quick look at a reverse field start (slowest cars up front) in a real SCCA race at La Junta Raceway in Colorado! Pandemonium! These are loads of fun, I love having to navigate the slower traffic while not interrupting the racing going on in that class (the Spec7 guys are intense!)
Two Wheels Off Excursion!

With the good comes the bad, watch what happens when I cut the corner a little too tight on a qualifying lap and get my tires over the curb. Had to save myself from a little offroading!
KW Clubsports w/ EDC Delete on the A90 Supra!
Просмотров 477Год назад
Next up on the Track Supra is to replace the OEM suspension components with a set of KW Clubsport V3s. Not only is this an upgrade to race car overall, but its slimmer profile will allow mounting of proper race wheels and tires. Torque Specs are taken from a copy of the Service Manual which may or may not be current. Please confirm and use these values at your own risk. Torque Specs(Rear): Shoc...
A90 Supra Transmission Mounts Install
Просмотров 178Год назад
Have a look as I install new Powerflex Transmission mounts into the A90 Supra! Torque values for mount nuts (top and bottom) and the brace bolts is 14 ft/lbs per the Service Manual. Note: For some reason I thought it might be a good idea to try filming silently and then add in voice over. I know now that this is not the way I do video, but enjoy anyway as I return to live action!

Offseason improvements! Watch as I install the AMT Motorsport Double Barrel Diff Mount into the C5Z race car. Pretty easy install for a big gain on the track. Watch (or skip) to the end to see a sneak preview of some other upcoming videos!
New Personal Best at HPR!
Просмотров 583 года назад
Competed in my first SCCA event at HPR and set a new personal best of 2:08 and change. Need to shave about 5-6 seconds off my time to be really competitive in my class. The good news is that I feel confident I can shave at least a few seconds by being a little bolder on the throttle in a few corners and adjusting my line in a few more. All in all, things are progressing and I'm getting faster!

C5 Corvette AIR System Delete/Removal
Просмотров 4,6 тыс.3 года назад
Watch as I remove the AIR system out of the C5 Corvette to create more engine bay space and remove a small amount of weight out of the front of the car. Easy to do, just remember this system is required in the states that perform emissions checks. Also keep in mind that removing this system will cause your Vette to throw a code, so remember to get tuned afterwards! Here is what I purchased for ...

Просмотров 2,8 тыс.4 года назад
Join me as we prep the TrackVette for it's first track day! Spark plugs and wires are on the agenda, share my pain and suffering on the driver's side and sweet, sweet relief on the spacious passenger side. Music: www.bensound.com
Thank you! Excellent video. As a new C5 owner planning all of my projects - this was very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this! I love that it's mostly uncut because I can look at the details-- I'm going to be installing air suspension and this really helps.
That looks like a lot of fun if a bit frustrating with traffic. Thanks for posting!
From all that, I can tell you that doing so will cause the MIL to illuminate and codes to set. There are other things that will be affected also, but I don't know if they will affect the performance of your ride. That annoying MIL indication is enough to make me not even think of doing this..
pull the air pump fuse dumb dumb
What did you adjust the rebound and compression to ?
Apologies, I did not see this until just today. I had the suspension tuned by my local shop, I will check and see where they are set next time I get it on the lift
Appreciate this video! I was thinking about adding this plate when I do long tubes but think I will hold off. Doesn't seem like the price is worth it for ~10 degrees difference.
What happens when you just unplug it and not use it?
I realize this video is two years old. But I'm hoping you can answer my question. Did these brakes fit in the 17 Z06 speed line wheels. I watched the video because I saw the speed line wheels in the thumbnail. But didn't see them on the car with the 6 piston calipers.
Your videos are great but the audio could use some improvement so it is not so distorted.
Thanks man, it’s a GoPro. I’ll look into upgrades.
So do I need to do anything else to be able to take this off?? I’m getting code p0410 and it’s most likely a bad one of these so am I gonna experience loss of power in engine still or??
Did you ever make a video on how to clear the codes off your dash? If not, could you at least explain how to do that? Thanks.
Will this kit work with AC condensor still in place?
I don't believe so, no
I had my catless Kooks headers And x pipe jet hot coated along with this mod it killed the heat.
Did this help with any wheel hop??
Getting ready to do this on my 2000. I have plan to remove intake manifold and was just goin g to cut off passenger side piping. Where is thar access hle that allowed you to see the passenger side check valve and bracket? thanks
Its where the heater core was. Unless you have already removed your HVAC system it might be a bit of a chore to get that access.
@@crisispointracing3423 thanks appreciate the quick reply
How was heel toe after it?
Def better, less slippery pedals as well.
Thanks for the video, how have your oil temps been since and any impact on the radiator cooling?
No problem at all. Oil Temps have stayed below 250-260 since installing the oil cooler. Most recent race saw oil temps get no higher than 240 with ambient at around 80 deg F. No impact on radiator cooling, although I did replace the stock radiator with a DeWitts one at the beginning of this year. The only time I saw high coolant temps (pre-radiator replacement) was in July with an ambient around 100. And even then it didn't quite make it all the way to the red. So I'd say little to no effect on radiator cooling, especially if you remove the A/C.
What type of clutch fluid is used ?please inform thanks 😊
You use the same as the brake fluid. As this is a race car, I use either Motul 660 as seen in the video or Castrol SRF.
Does the part where the oil lines connect to have a built in thermostat In it like the Improved racing kit has?
It does not. Since this is a dedicated race car, no thermostat is needed as the car will get to operating temp fairly quickly on warmup laps. Might be handy on a cool day, lots of people have fabbed up a cover for the oil radiator to help get temps up while street driving.
So why not fill the power bleeder with fluid like you are supposed to do? I have done both ways. Last week I filled it and used it for the fluid additions while I bled. Just curious why you don't fill the bleeder?
Great question, I'm probably over thinking things. Since the amount of fluid you need to replace isn't an exact science, you probably end up with fluid left in the container or not enough fluid in the container to finish the job. So you either end up having to move fluid back into the original container or adding to the tank. I figure its worth the extra 10 minutes or so not to bother with it and keep the leftover fluid in the original container.
@@crisispointracing3423 Thanks for responding. To answer having too much fluid, you then use that for the Ranger bleed! So, in effect, do the process reversed and you use it all! Learned this last week so I am not bashing. But, I have use the Power Bleeder for years.
@@OCDRex11 Makes perfect sense, thanks for the tip!
I already tore like 3 of mine trying to pull it out lol
Haha, yea several of mine tore out as well the first go around. I think its evidence of age and heat stress, makes the plastic brittle.
Hey guys, just a heads up that after a year of use I've noticed quite a bit of heat damage to the Taylor wires after this install. The internet will tell you (as it told me) that the metal heat shields on the stock wires/plugs aren't necessary, but I would HIGHLY recommend some sort of heat shielding on your wires, especially in a racing application. I am replacing now with MSD wires and DEI heat socks for next go around.
This recap is the answer I was looking for. Subbed lol
if it's a race car dump the cats.
Yeah as they heat up they reduce power it's a documented issue with cats under sustained WOT
I've come a long way since my 2:23s running a street car at my first HPDE!
Not really that great . Thx for the vid.
Np, yea, I have doubts as to how effective this really is. I imagine the money is better spent on upgraded sway bars and coilovers. Center console still gets super hot. I'm going to need to put some sort of heat shielding on the top as I use it frequently to get over the roll cage and out of the car.
Did the tunnel plate firm up the chassis like they said it would?
Maybe by a tiny bit. Also, my torque tunnel still gets hot enough to cook eggs on after a 20-30 minute track session. I'm hoping the plate is at least keeping it from steak searing temperatures.
Nice...
What block off plates did u use
It's up in the description section, I used these and they worked great: www.speedwaymotors.com/LS-Air-Block-Off-Plate,103764.html
Couple things I missed when talking about items that I want to have done in 2021. First off, brakes. Looking at a BBK for the fronts in 2021. Secondly, a race clutch. I don't have any issues with the stock clutch at the moment, but putting in a beefier model will be a good upgrade. Third, having the harmonic balancer replaced in about a week. Its a known weak point on the car and having it go out on the track would be a very bad day. Thanks again for tuning in and hope you enjoy the video!
I have the pump i need the piping is it for sale?
Sorry, totally missed this. Let me check to see if I still have it. If I do, def for sale.
@@crisispointracing3423 I mostly need the left side pipe from manifold with check valve. I have the other parts.
@@billfroelich628 Sorry Bill, had a big snowstorm. I checked and it looks like I already tossed it. Sorry!
Have u ever had heavy shifting at first?? Just did my and it’s short but really heavy shift had stock shifter
Try loosening the knob up, making the shifter longer and thereby giving you more leverage. This kit also requires a little break in time, but sounds like loosening the knob will help alleviate the problem.
Great job ! I'll try with my eezibleed kit ! 👏
