Ran box stock class on 5500rpm rule. 350lb class approximately 625 ft track.
Hot laps on 16/60 and averaged 3943 rpm. The track was wet and slow.
I went to a 16/64 for the heat race. Average rpm was 4282 with a best lap of 12.58. A friend of mine looked at the tach and we decided to run a 15/64. I did and the my best lap was a 12.52 with average 4443 rpm.
I am still looking for the 4700 to 4900 rpm range range. To me it almost shows I need to go to a 14 driver. I know the guy I passed for the lead is running a 12 something. Still not sure what to do but with this track I don't think it is going to be a 16 for sure. I run a Hillard Flame clutch with 2800 engagment. O the start qhen we came out of 4 and got on the gas about half way down the straightway it felt like it kicked in overdrive. I don't think the clutch was slipping. Could it be it just hit its power range. I still don't know how to use this Mychron five but I think it will tell me. Just wondering about the gears. Just wasn't much difference between the 16/64 and 15/64. Seems like it should have been more.
One thing though in the feature.
