Just curious if you were getting a lot of slippage in the converter because of the turbo engines torque?

What is the minimum weight for the class you are racing?

Have fun testing. \:\)

Yes, turbo cars make so much more torque. 30%@ 1/8 and 11-13% slip at the 1/4 mile causing it to build a lot of heat in the transmission. You could not put a bunch of power to it without overheating the transmission. Coan claims the reworked convertor will be 4-5% max. Which is ideal for our setup.

We can weight 2700lbs when we race in Ga. Some other classes we need to weight in at 2850lbs.
