Regarding gearing .. my own preference would be different FD + close ratio gearset (of longer 1st & 2nd). 6th .. for me car lacks NA power for gears above 5th to be usable anyway. Don't you think close ratio gearset worth adding too? Though maybe it's just me driving more often on slower tracks  |
First remember we are tuning for a specific competition with rules. Not constrained by any rules and just tuning for max performance per dollar, Blub's configuration would certainly be different.

While we welcome input and discussion, this is not our first rodeo. We probably do a lot more research, testing while drawing upon a vast library of experience and data than your average HPDE driver does
Some discussions on aerodynamics we have curated:

Our last project car. Vegas generated about 2000lbs of downforce at 150mph
