GEAR

6 CELL STOCK

124/34

4 cell 19 TURN

120/44


The key is getting the car up off the ground here. The car slams down into turn 1 so hard the left side of the car will bottom out on the front. A BMS setup is fairly close chassis setup with the tires in the above setup. My guess is with 3800s 19 turn will turn 5.9s slow 40 lap run.

Last time over was in 6 cell stock. I ran 6.1s up front and 6.3s out the back. Was on a 38 4:00 pace just could dodge everyone. 19 turn is about a 1/2 to 3/4 lap faster. 40 laps not out of reach.........

Oval:

6 cell stock

4 cell 19 turn

I ran 4 cell stock in the second heat in the Gobbler Classic last year. You can see the results check 10/29/05....I guessed at the gear and was over geared a few.....still run a 6.9 up front....but, the car was so easy to drive, it was unreal. I am trying to get them to run 4 cell stock in place of 6 cell stock.

Looks like standard 4 cell 19 turn rules. First time in a few years, they have been running the fixed timing 19 turn motors. It should be fun!

I've updated the basic setup some. That setup has ran fast 38 laps in 6 cell stock. I plan on starting with .024 springs on the front of my car. I'll be there sometime Friday morning, should be before noon. Tires BSR 4 Blues work, maybe a green Left Rear. Rs on LF, RF and RR. S on LR a R if you can Find one.

Na Think I Will Pass If They Want To Inforce Roar Rules They Need To Keep Up With The Roar Classes Instead Of Living In The Past

jflack
04-22-2006, 12:53 PM
They are a true Roar track. 6 cell racing is still in the rule book. They don't race much oval weekly, so most run TC cars so when they run oval 6 cell is cheaper. 4 cell 19 turn full roar rules is going to be run.....sorry to miss you,

understand that point but when they have a big event they need to include that class as well for the folks that run 4-cell stock thats all i am saying to me thats just catering to the locals and not every racer that would come to the event

jimmy have you tryed body mounted wing their and what where the results if you did

jflack
04-24-2006, 05:04 PM
I have used a body wing before with good results. I think with the wing on the body loads the chassis too much in turn one. It kind of slams the car down into the corner, but it will work. I have my BMS Nats car ready to try, just in case thats what works. I used a large buds wing even with roof on the pod last time. That body Will was running at the Carpet Nats would be a good body for SCU.

04-24-2006, 08:55 PM
