Hey everyone my son runs a purple slide class at our local track and I am having some issues. I have tried about almost every carburetor setting I can think of, checked the specs on the slide and have that opening to the max, and did a leak down test which shows no internal motor issues. The issue is he seems to not have as much power as the top 3 cars in his class. He has finished in the top 5 relatively consistently but can crack the top 3.
Early on I chalked it up to driving and didn't think about it to much but his driving seems to be on point his corner entry and exit are smooth, he isn't lifting, and not on the brakes he just seems to be lacking power.
Could it be a clutch issue? I am using a noram cheetah to disc clutch, its serviced and cleaned regularly and seems to work as it should. Engagement on the clutch is set to about 3000 rpm so maybe it just isn't locking up fast enough?
Just looking for some opinions or thoughts on what I can try. Thanks for any help.
