It has been a long time since I posted.Bring you up to date.I built a vg33e powered racecar for road courses.http://www.vgpowered.com/index....html
The car did great all season, took some development at first then even beat cars 5x the price! using 19 dollar used hoosiers. (diasio's 911's etc)see todd rieds video below, my car is the black one on pole, the diasio got me mid race then I eventually got him back to take the overall win. http://www.vimeo.com/2200764
The next race, not so good, started pole, then messed up. I had a brain fart i guess, no excuse really, and missed a shift, the tattle tale on my tach read 8500RPM.See the smoke out of my pipe on the first turn!http://www.vimeo.com/2202917
Well the vg33e is gone, it was a great engine! Much better than the vg30e I had in it at first and in the pictures on vgpowered link. I had many many hard hours on this engine and it never missed a beat. It never used any oil, overheated etc...I will try to tear into it this week and post some pictures of the mess!I think I am going to put the vg30e back in it, as funds are tight currently.Anyone have a set of newer vg rods for sale?Joe
