cnynracer1 09-23-2002, 12:33 PM OK, here is the new resized , and freshened up picture. Much thanks to Chris Davis for touching up the colors, the picture looks 100x better! http://public.clunet.edu/~forozco/ser/roadrace600.jpg Click here for an 800x600 version! http://public.clunet.edu/~forozco/ser/roadrace800.jpg WickedSR20 09-23-2002, 06:58 PM I hope to be turbo soon. Car looks sweet. spdracerUT 09-23-2002, 10:51 PM damn frank, how do you keep the wheels from spinning? I'm only making somewhere a little higher than 200whp and I'm spinning second, 3rd holds pretty well. Khiem cnynracer1 09-24-2002, 01:58 PM Thanks Wicked. Spdracer, my turbo is pretty laggy, and that is a good thing with a FWD car, keeps the tires from blowing off quickly. It still spins through second on a hard shift. Of course I only run 10 psi on the street. I only run more at the dragstrip or dyno, when I get ahold of some good gas :) I am still using shitty Kumho Ecsta 712's. Victorious 09-25-2002, 06:42 PM What type of rims do you have, and what size tires are you using? cnynracer1 09-25-2002, 11:11 PM 17" Tenzo AV7's with 205/40 Kumho Ecsta Tires, cheap stuff. I think I spent $80 per wheel, and $70 per tire or something. The tires are not sticky, but they do wear like rocks. The car still felt great on the track. Victorious 09-26-2002, 07:59 AM Does the weight of the wheel huurt performance? Or does it not even make a differencee, when you're making that much power? cnynracer1 09-26-2002, 12:04 PM Honestly I didn't notice one bit of difference. I don't even think those wheels are much heavier than stock. OTOH, what I did notice significantly was the improved cornering! Wow, 17's rock in that respect. | ||
