Collin Jackson should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Ran the car for the first time (BT40-37) last weekend in Portland Oregon, USA.
She was awesome to drive.
I put to much oil in her and it went every where!
Ran 300# fronts and 350# rears with about 4 degrees on the rear wing.
Ran within 2 seconds of Carter's March 77B lap record for vintage and we were just playing around. (IE: 1:18.2 lap)
Float levels were to high and I will have to get on that to stop the bogging.
Ran old DS11 brake pads and the pedal went deep after 15 laps or so,
-Thinking about some Performance Friction 2001 carbon pads
Lastly tach drive and cable leaks like a sieve! Any tips or sources?
