finally first testdrive at track
car feels wonderful, power is more than enough fot me at the moment. (since this is my first formulacar)
engine delivers around 500hp and 650nm at 1 bar boost. using round 10:1 compressionratio i am driving engine on ethanol (e85) with 104 octane (biofuel)
but now i have put a lower boost in midrange to keep the torque a bit lower than that . using round 0.4 bar at 4500 rpm, and raised the boost to round 0.7 bar at 7000 rpm..
seems perfect to start practice with.
But i still need new gears, topspeed @ 7200 rpm is round 240km/h . i would want it to be a little faster, (would like 1:1 at 5th gear) since i have the tourqe , but cant rev the engine more due to the small turbines in my turbos (42mm exducers) ....
i have emailed racecarwarehose and they have the gears i need, and i hope they can send them very soon. anyone knows more companys that possible have those kind of parts for my car/gearbox??
i feel so glad it is finally time to strat drivng and that the car feels so nice to drive.
next driving at alastaro finland in the end of may
