After my first run in qualifying I was able to get 22 laps in 5 minutes flat. There was one other that beat me and he got a 23 - 5:11 just edging me off in the final lap.
Car feels good. the difference between traction and slipping is the amount of tire sauce you put on the tires.
I clean my tires in tire sauce. Then I re-apply once and wipe it off and apply again 2 races before mine. As traction comes up again I will take one application off and then run them.
Also, It was suggested to me that I keep my 17.5 motor in my car for BOTH heats. That means that I will be running my 17.5 motor in the 13.5 class. If you look at the lap times, I will be about the same speed so its no problem. Also its a lot less work for a class that I don't care about anyway.
Knota has issue with this decision. She says that I will be a hazard to the other drivers. Let me sacrifice a qualifier on it and then I will see if I want to go with this plan.
For those that are keeping track, I am in race 8 and 26. Times are as follows
17.5 8:08am 2:23pm
13.5 10:44am 4:59pm
All times local.
