Nice Video! Dominion is a very fun track in my opinion. I ran it back with NASA in July ( no rain ). Your way around the track is spot on, Turn 1 can be VERY fast but it takes some time to get to that point, You can also go WOT from 7 exit (south paw) all the way to the brake zone for South...

I would say stick with the 3v or even get back into a 5.0, I have seen them around the 14-16k range for 50k mileage cars. Just something to think about. I do have a few guys here that run the 3.7 open track ( both being autos ) and they do pretty well out there. Both are in the process of...

Yeh, Oak tree is a really hard corner to master, in our cars you have to turn it into two corners. All the other things you mentioned ( braking and turning ) will all come with seat time and once you get confident in what your doing you will start to advance really quick!

Yeh your corner selection with the 3.55s is dead on, That is the only places you will be in second gear. Sucks you cant make it out for Nov VIR, The same club has a event first of Feb ( weather permitting ). Hopefully you can get to that one! I watched your video and you looked really good out...

Thanks! Yours should work out the same but it will be 2-3-4 instead of my 3-4-5, I have a customer that has the 3650 and 3.55s behind a coyote and when i drive his its just like driving mine but one gear backwards. You have any plans to make it back out anytime this year? NASA is next weekend...

355 is going to be your best bet, at VIR I go right about 151 in back stretch going to about marker 1 1/2 at around 428rwhp with a 275/35 ( 25.5 i believe is the height ) at around 7100ish, race weight is around 3700. This is also in pretty good air to, in the heat of the summer knock about...

I am about 99% sure i will be there, What group are you running in?

I would not worry about the TA argument, Each shop/person has there own way of doing things, They all work. ( At least the methods that are generally talked about here). Summit Point Main is a great course, I don't see anything unsafe about the way that track is set up, Jefferson and Shenandoah...

Dave is correct, You live about 10 min from me. VIR is less then 2 hours, Dominion (Thornburg) should be open this month and is about 45 min from us. You are more then welcome to stop in anytime and I will give you the rundown on how to get out there!

This will most certainly turn into a pissing match real quick. I have a TA on my car and I personally love it, big key word here "I". No one here that knows me can dispute the car is FAST for what it is around multiple tracks. Does the TA make the car faster or slower, I honestly do not know, I...

Dave, I have great luck with these pumps http://www.foreinnovations.com/product_p/w-f10000302.htm They will support around 400whp and i have yet to see one fail!

Dave, to answer your question yes you can drop that pump right in for what you are doing. I would highly suggest going with a different style pump though simply for longevity. That pump seems to last about a year or two tops. Or atleast carry a spare to the track with you.

I will add a few things on top of all this great advise. I did run with no ABS all last year and found it to be a little faster once you get used to it ( with about 25 more HP to match the AI rules ), This was making laps by myself in test sessions. Once you add other cars on track in a good...

Nice laps! You will find most of the time you want to pick up in the uphill esses and 10. The Vette looks like fun to, any time frame on when you might get your comp license? Both of you should come to Superfest Apr 23 at VIR, Its a good group of guys and you will get a decent amount of...

I am pretty sure it defaults to on when you start the car, You could always unplug one of the brake/clutch switch wires if you are not using it that often. The calibration is set by 2 knobs. After installing a handful of these things and testing all the cars on track I have to say it works very...

That makes perfect since Dave, I have only been into road racing for about 2 years so i had no idea about rules before that time. I could easily see where a S197 would be a class killer in CMC! For ST2, I have gotten within about 1 sec of the normal pace that our local ST2 cars run with around...

I could not agree with this more. put some nice parts on the car and learn how to drive the dam thing. Stop trying to fix the wrong part of the car, Fix the nut behind the wheel first. I hated my set up at first, but after a year or so of learning the car I love it!

It was really for any class with the exception of any class that wont allow it ( not sure how that was a CMC car, the 05-10 car in our region is not allowed in that class). Don't get me wrong, the 3v is a great engine. It is just no were as good as a coyote in durability or power/torque. For...

Dave pretty much covered everything you need to know about the tech. I will try to help you with a few other things. If you do plan on running ST2 you will NOT be competitive with a 3v. From what i remember ST2 is a 8.00:1 power to weight. if that is the case you would have to be about 2900lbs...

I went back and looked at some data and its about 7250 at 150ish with 3.55's and a 275/35/18 toyo rr in the back stretch at VIR. That is making about 425 SAE and 3600 pounds. Most stockish Coyotes will go about 143 back there. The way drive you may be a touch faster then that since you will be...

I would unplug the PCM, Easy enough to do just to be safe and the NEG cable. I would not worry about the the fuel tank being there either.

I would say ground control is the worst company for quality control i have ever seen. They stand behind nothing and the lifetime warranty is a joke.

There is some sort of difference, I can fit a 18x10 and 18x10.5 BBS wheel over the 13-14 brake kit, the same wheel will not work on the 15 no matter what spacer we use. The bottom of the caliper itself is hitting the barrel.

I know the older ones are very hard to find parts for, and when you do find them they are outrageous in price.

No problem, I can get it fixed if you need help with it! I know its hard to ignore data, but sometimes its better to look at the hardware when it comes apart. For example we just took a coyote out of a local race car, This car started HPDE mid 2011 with around 20k on the clock, was in group...
