P.S. If you want your pictures to show up correctly, only use horizontal (landscape) pics and not portrait. The forum automatically rotates pics to landscape mode.

Good tip on the formatting but I fixed the images by resaving them is a SQUARE format and when you upload those it leaves the orientation alone.
In the Blue group we were running there wasnt really anything keeping up with us in the corners except for a couple of RTR cars which are basically are go karts. There certainly were a few cars with more power as we currently are basically stock with roughly 400-425 RWHP. We were braking VERY late on the back straight and the only reason I think we were seeing 150+ is because we were carrying alot of speed through the corners. We gave a few point byes to some of the faster straightaway cars only to bunch up with them again in the curvey sections ( I call this the MIATA factor,,lol).
We will be modifying this car further as we are pretty happy with the handling. Anticpated upgrades should push the RWHP into the 550-580 range keeping the car naturally aspirated at about 3650 pounds without driver.
I THOUGHT the Chin guys were tracking lap times but apparently not.
