Talking Warp Factor II - Winter Rebuild Thread!

Next week we hit the dyno, need to record all torque / Hp we used while racing in our 2011 season. The day after the dyno testing start removing parts.

Talking Re: Warp Factor II - Winter Rebuild Thread!

2012 Upgrades:

* New battery pack
* New carbon fiber roof
* New Evnetic's controllers
* New Netgain motors
* New rear diff housing, 3rd member, and axles
* Install chute (will be racing over 150 mph)

Current weight 2650 lbs
Current 1/4 10.08 seconds @ 127.75 mph
_______________________________________

Our goal is to reduce the Camaro's weight to 2000 lbs, add more torque/ Hp, replace rear with lighter rear, replace battery pack, add chute so I can stop, and get an awesome paint job!

Have you ever collected any log files from one or both Zillas during any of your runs or, even better, from the dyno testing? If so, you should send them to me so we can best determine the allocation of volts and amps in the new racing controller.

You can do some really cool looking paint jobs without the headaches using this stuff. Also helps control weight. Apparently it is quite popular with racers now.

Jeff,

I was thinking of you while doing this dyno test, but I ran into a problem. I set-up the laptop on the passenger floor adjusted the setting for Q4 and the data was running, after the 1/4 run my computer was off? I have not checked to see if the data is still there, but I will.
