Yeah they were rubbing bad, Joe was looking at the log from that pass and the wheel speed was all messed up from rubbing the rears. I can't wait to get the issues sorted and back out and start going fast.
I saw a video in slow motion of me leaving off the line from behind the car and as soon as I launch it squats right into the tires and goes right.
e98 but I just put good old fashion 91 octane in it and just finished cycling it through the system LOL.
I also took it for a cruise around the neighborhood and watched people look like what the hell is that and an older couple at the crosswalk plugged their ears.

haha. I try to idle mine out of my neighborhood, but i know it’s still loud. I was thinking of getting some e98 or M1 for spring . I’m going to do some winter updates which includes a front fuel cell , a twin disc and Liberty faceplates . I figured a barrel fuel will ensure a more consistent tune. I’ll crank this car on up to closer to 800whp and peak out there until I finish a sleeved bottom end

Heck yeah man, my buddy sent me another video and I Hector from Fast and the Furious was there doing some stuff.
So.. To end the squat.. What are your plans? New suspension, or just tweaking what ya got? The powerplant under your hood treated that rear suspension like a little bitch and what you're currently using doesn't, in any way, give indication of being treated like that in any other scenarios.

So the suspension I have isn't really the problem, what happened was I lowered the car, especially the rear. So one thing I didn't do was roll the rear quarter so it has that lip literally right where the tire is. Another problem I didn't really notice was the camber of the rears is almost outward, so when it does squat the tire pushes right into the lip.
Like the tire and the lip are so close I can't even get a finger between the two.

Yeah I borrowed a fender roller from my buddy and I am going to roll the fenders and then do an alignment and see if that will do the trick. I am running the Strange setup so I may adjust the compression in the rears.
So I got the new skinnies on and mounted as well as pulled the hood to get all the oil from underneath. I took hours to get all the oil cleaned off the engine bay, wheel well and under carriage. I also think I have a solution for the oil box exploding oil out of the filters and that was to remove them and get two -12 fittings welded on. So now I will run a -12 line all the way to the back in the other oil breather box which should allow a lot more room for excess oil and crank pressure to travel.
This will at least solve the issue of oil coming out of the box in the bay, next on the list is to roll the fenders tomorrow and try and get the clearance needed. Got the -12 line but I am waiting on the fitting to arrive.
Yes there are multiple baffles within and even restrictors on the oil pan line and before the filters on the box.
Would it help if you ran a short hose over to your up pipe, so that the exiting exhaust gas pressure reduced the crankcase pressure buildup in the box? Looks like it would be a pretty short hose since your box and exhaust are very close to one another. Just a thought..

Yeah I thinks that’s called a Venturi line or something and my buddy runs that on his race car. When he first did it it was shooting oil all over his windshield but since they also incorporated the rear box it doesn’t do it.
That may be a route for me but I will see how this does first.
Did you see the butterfly style wastegate they showed on sema? i saw it somewere but i cant find it again. I really like it for tight place and butterfly gas flow thats much better from the pistons ones. edit Im making a new thread about it thi swill go off the rails.(i found it)
AZ is the 2nd race I think
