Hey all, Just wanted to know how fast some of you drivers are making it at Michigan. After tweaking my car I was able to pull off 146 mph, top speed. I reach this just before hitting turn one after my first lap. According to the IVGA, the record speed is 152 mph. Anyone else getting this high up? -EggMan ____________________________________________________ "I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.

You sure you're not doing NASCAR? You're almost 100 mph off of where my times are, unless I am missing something... If you just typoed, supposed to be 246, then you are faster than me! I am at about 240.
I can just about reach 251 with a tow down the back straight, but on full tanks my best is around 245

Even with NASCAR, you should be doing speeds in the high 180's to low 190's. Dave "davids" Sparks Sequoia Motorsports

Yeah, I am a moron. I meant to say 246mph. I played with the shocks and changed 5th and 6th gear a little. I am still trying to learn a little more about the camber settings. I hear that can and a little more performance. I am on my quest for 252mph!!!! -EggMan ____________________________________________________ "I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
