Thx bro. Eric mentioned that you got a new tune and kept getting faster. That's insane. I bet you would hit 180+ at Shift Sector given the negative slope and better DA. Congrats.

Nice man!

Were you able to log your IAT's at all?

No I don't have any guages and I didn't have a data logger unfortunately but the car ran solid and I'll post up the vids soon. I don't want to give a lot away but my first race I pulled like 5 cars on a Porsche 997.2 Turbo S PDK so I knew I was in business

Your ice tank system is solid! In between runs i drained the water and would bring 2-3 bags of ice. I would dump one bag before each run and after every run check my water temp. Sometimes I could do 2 runs in a row with just one bag of ice. So I could stay on the runway for a long time and do a bunch of races and then go back to the pits, drain some water, grab a drink and then go out and do it all over again all day long.

One time I made the mistake of draining the water too low and the return line sucked in air so I had to remove the feed line and suck it like 25 times spit out the water but it started working perfectly again. My buddies loved that and had to good vid material for a while lol.

I'm happy hitting 179...it was on the same tune that was knocking on Saturday. Pretty sure the 179 was tail wind assisted and I'm convinced the right lane was reading 2-3 mph faster.

Nice talking to you Longboarder I had the FBO 335i in blue, talked to you for a bit about your car! It ran really strong. My best trap of the day was 145.8mph. I beat the blue hellcat haha, but shes a close friend and is still learning how to drive the car, she ended up trapping around 152mph once she got used to it. I need to put all my vids together as well.

Likewise nice chatting with you. It was nice to see the n54 335's running strong and putting on a good showing. That Harmon Motiv single turbo was an absolute beast. I didn't know anyone had one fully sorted out. This one was dialed in for sure. We stayed close initially but once we hit ~ 130mph, that thing just flew away from me! Good times. Hope to make it out to another NFZ Arizona event.

665 wheel GTR is a lot faster than anything else 665 wheel.

Heat soak!

5 year old thread but just watched the video.. anyone else notice the huge plume of black smoke at 50-52 sec? Looks like it happened again afterward. That M4 must have been running insanely rich. Looked like a diesel!
