    I've crewed the 13hr at VIR several times and a few 10hrs(?) at Homestead. Can't wait to get to run it myself! i love night driving, there's just something about it...
    I doubt changing the gearing is going to get you more than a few mph.

    What kind of speeds are you hitting at Road Atlanta on the back straight Tripper?

    I would guess he is in the high 120mph range maybe low 130, I'm hitting almost 160 and I've been pulled by cars before.

    That's what i figured but didn't know if it would help him get up to that speed quicker

    I'd say over 130, i've done 125+ in my integra on street tires and weigh alot more.

    but 160 I can only imagine! The old Raceworks Speedvision World Cup Prelude was getting a consistant 151mph though, that suprised me!

    My formere roommate took a ride in a Z06 at RA last time we were there, and I think he said they were getting about 170 going into 10a. In a street car. With no roll cage. The owner was going to let Rob drive but a couple of racers oiled down the track and clean up took so long that Rob lost his chance.
