Aaron Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 That isn't just a mobile brick and it'll do triple digits no problems :dumb: I am talking about aerodynamics. The Jeep hits an aerodynamic wall at a certain speed, which is a bit over 100mph. Ask me how I know... The new parts he has on it since we raced will certainly help overcome some of it, but not all of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky31186 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 It is a tank. But it has more to do with Gearing. As its not geared to AWD roll race to 160.. I'll do 20-160 roll, wouldnt be the first time.. The main reason I let off around 100 with Phil was because we were not in the best spot to be doing that. And because I knew he would have done it to me.. Leaving on the 2nd honk.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What gear are you in at 100? When does it shift into the next gear? I'd assume once its in 5th its done for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyFKINPowerz Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Don't tell me you lost to a jeep too? No, I need to get a few things sorted out with the car before I do anything other than put around. No but that car is loud as fuckin hell I know, I'm gonna put a set of Flowmaster Pro Series mufflers on it to try and quiet it down a little bit. I know its not gonna quiet it down a lot but it will make it a little better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
