Never got the right chord for the vid camera. Spent all day making it work. So here it is.
This is only on spring pressure 15psi vs Low boost 18. As any more power and I was all over the place. Sorry it was cut short.

OT, can you tell me what you're running all round and what application you're using your car for? I'm looking at moving up to 265 fronts so I'm curious what you've got going on.

Hehehe, yeah that is pretty raw. I like it. I can also 'see' the lightness of the car too. Guess the navigator is worth his weight in directions. lol Something I could use when we do our Motokhanas.

I'm going to try and get some videos today of the boost gauge in 3rd, maybe 4th. Just like you did just for comparison.
Is your turbo back up and running?
Come down to Houston, or Texas World on the 25th or 26th. Big difference in person. I'll turn the boost back up. I'll do a couple runs in a video car next to me today. I'm curious what it looks like with full boost.
The weight has so much to do with that. But, I have 10lbs more boost available to me, on top of what you saw in the video.(150 more hp) Even with the sticky tires, I couldnt put down all the power in the turns, so I just left boost at spring pressure. I put the drag radials back on so I could have a chance at putting the power to the ground.

Yeah, He called out a little more than I needed, But I kept screwing up the two gates right before the carousel. My fastest run was right after that run without him in the car. Video camera shut down before that.

Out of curiosity, why don't you get into real track driving? I started out on autoxing, and once I became aware of the track, I never went back!
Autoxing was fun, and it taught me fantastic car control, but I always found it very hard to justify paying at least $40 for only a couple minutes of seat time. Bull****, IMHO.
Besides, it's not until you get on a more full-scale track that you really get to see the virtues of the 951. Amazing cars, and doing autoxes you've only just begun to scratch the surface!![Cheers](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/beerchug.gif)
Nice video, BTW. Car sounds like a menace!
