How High Can We Go?

April 26th, 2009 · No Comments

Today I decided to take the car out onto the street and play around with the launch RPM limiter which was set at 2500 RPM. Basically I wanted to see how high I can set that and have the brakes still hold the car back. The end result is that 2500 RPM is already at the very edge. Check out the video!

By the way watch the front tires in the video – you can see that when I test the RPM limit they aren’t rolling at all – the brakes are holding them. It is the rear drums brakes that aren’t able to hold the slicks back.
