HPDE Day video

Just a small vid I put together of my Boy running the track. I'm on Flag stand duty, which happens to be the best view of the track.

He runs a turbo tC 311whp/285wtq @ 8.8lbs of boost








Here's the most recent shot of my tC too at the track (I didn't run though, need new wheel bearings)







Coming in the Mail tomorrow:

What happened after he passed the vette? It looked like he hit the dirt or something...

If wheel bearings cost as much as what's in those boxes, I would have to stop driving a car and ride a bicycle....lol

Nothing wrong with brake setup, lacks downforce on the rear. Counter Oversteer...wouldn't have happened with a wing on the back and splitter in the front. He's thinking of getting Aero now.

That's the way to do it. Nice.

Good that you finally got some trickle down sponsorship!

Dragon, what transmission and rear diff are the drift tC's using?

I'm thinking of a 2AZ into my other (N/A 7M) Supra as a long-term experiment.

May be cheaper and way better handling than another JZ motor.

Fredric Aasbo, not sure. For Ken Gushi's tC, he's uing the 240sx rear diff. But he exploded the diff at Road Atlanta so they are thinking of moving over to the Supra rear diff. I forget his tranny though, I'll have to ask him.

I'll hit him up on FB and then I'll get back to you.
