Honestly if the problem is so bad for the 94-97 where in the he ll is bugeroon on this one?
Rob is the Quick NA1.8 in SoCal, he can run with any model in his car. I believe he already said his car is equal and no change is necessary. Rob, did I quote you accurately?
I have gone on record as saying this before I have driven a 97 drago and my 99 drago identicle prep and setup with identicle Driver ME (Caveman at the wheel) My shift points at Mid Ohio were withing a couple of feet of each other. Is that corner speed, is that rev limit, I dont know, but it was so close I did not notice the difference. The 97 is for sure harder to drive have said that before, i suspect the 1.6 which is the only model I have not driven is just as hard to drive as the 94-97. Easiest model to drive and most forgiving is the 2001+ bar none. Maybe you need to swap out a few ECU's and find one that gives the the 200 more rpms I have notices a difference in rev limit changing ECU's in my 99 although its only about 100 on the stock tack and never bothered to test it on traqmate.
I will say this we all want to think we are better drivers than we really are, that goes for every single racer in the class and especially me... I have complained to Drago and he will attest to this on a couple of occasions about my power only to send him some vid and end up watching it myself and see I am not driving the car worth a sh it. He is always quick to point out my flaws, which keeps my head in the game. I usually go out the next weekend and turn it up 3 notches, for some reason its easy to fall back into bad habits, that why coaches are so valuable... I still want to blame my equipment but in reality when I suck 9 out of ten times its me, there was once this year my car was off 10hp and still turned some personal best laps that one weekend it was the car, not that I could have won a double national at ATL in that field but I would have had a fighting chance at a top 10 maybe?
Caveboy is on a roll today... Wheaties this morning or Cinnamon Life ?
