    Front end doesn't rise and transfer wt to the back. At 13:50 the front pops up a couple inches and falls right back down and then the tires break loose.

    Hi John, nice that you’re trying to get after it. Just wanted to know the shift point, if you have it set at at time as a condition so if it loses the tyre it won’t shift to top

    • @TurboJohnRacing
      @TurboJohnRacing  7 месяцев назад +1

      Great idea, we have been shifting it at 8400 and not using time.... So when it does kick the tire, it shifts into second. I'm gonna change that..... Make it go at least 1.5 seconds before it can shift. Thanks

    Just curious, does Randy's car still have the turbo scavenge pump on it? Did that resolve the smoking issues?

    • @TurboJohnRacing

      No, the turbo is high enough now it drains properly to scavenge on dry sump pump.

    At that level of racing the tires have a very short life. Maybe it's time for a new set. I have heard kc Maxx say 17 passes on slicks and the good is gone.

    Yall play too much , track is NOT GOOD and throw too much off line seemingly. If it was me in control of 100,000 show-mod I'd know how to tune , tire pressure and shock need to extend. No give, or, and little too no compression not work in any cond "Let's see if it's gonna work"? Would not be exceptional as the go-to. Feel for you guy's. Why the big wonder ? Hoosier ?
