My NASA Racecar NA Build
#44
Heres a video from a cell phone. This was before the custom HKS exhaust was fabricated and on the base Haltech map, suprised it actually started the car. The racepak is beautiful, more pics to come tomorrow.

Going around a corner pulls oil away from the pickup (especially without oil pan baffles), if you're carrying a lot of RPM's while doing so, you can starve the oil pump = bye bye rods (at least something on them should get cooked, or thrown).
You want to get an oil pan spacer and baffles if you plan to do serious tracking.
You can also run an accumulator that sits beyond the filter and has an electronic solenoid so it can release extra oil in should starvation begin to occur (and thus keep oil in the main and rod bearings)

Is is sufficient to do a full hot lap, watching the oil pressure gauge (or datalogging it with Cypher), and if the pressure is ok, then I'm good? (Assuming the oil level is correct).

Here are some clips! We tuned her for the breakin with a rich a/f and the timing bumped way down, idle learning still needs some attention but this haltech unit is sweet! Should start the tuning on E85 in about a week. She put down 255whp on a mustang dyno in 2nd gear, only reving it out to 6k. I dont have the dyno chart but the horsepower curve was ready to spike!. This baby is going to be screaming when we lean it out and advance the timing for her race tune!

Nice build man, and major props, i wish there was more info and love to the florida HPDE scene, everywhere i go its preety much a loner type expiernce. I am a HPDE head aswell and am taking time building mine up aswell for some HPDE lol, i would love to attend some events etc to vid and get a feel of it , thus far i do not like Moroso at all, that course seems to be hella harsh on tires. Sebring seems like a great course. Im from up north, and still am missing the feel of pocono lol. I may have to take a trip down there at japtrix or some events and see the build man. lol
