Hope you enjoyed the clips. The two that are currently on YouTube were pieces of the only two on-track sessions I've done with the camera up and running. We're making some mount changes to stop the 3-4 cps "shaking" that occurs at higher speeds (wind buffeting). We are also going to mount the camera slightly higher, mostly to allow a view of corner apexes, currently out of sight. And we hope to see some sunshine!!! The day those clips were taken, it was low overcast and very dark.
About the engine - stock blueprinted and balanced B20E ("D" camshaft) with the following 3 modifications:
- Tuned exhaust header
- 0.5 compression boost (11:1)
- Higher fuel pressure (37-41 psi at the rail under full throttle)
Absolutely no other performance mods have been made to the engine. That's because there are essentially no other mods allowed by the ruleset (SCCA Improved Touring).
The swaybars are both adjustable, allowing you to tune the balance to your liking, which can obviously be track-dependent.
I know of no one running "double" anti-roll bars at the track. That's not to say they don't exist, but I would think most racers would opt for a single adjustable bar. The cost of fabricating a good one just isn't much, relative the total cost of the race car.
