Hey guys,
I've been running legends now for almost 3 years no on an limited schedule of about 10 races a year. Having blown one motor, and having the head gasket go on the other, I got a stock 1200 bike motor in the car to get me some seat time. I'm continuing to improve, getting the setup better to my liking. I'm running asphalt ovals anywhere from mid pack to the back third of the field. Ive a some top tens running decent and keeping my nose clean.
I find my biggest weakness is starts and restarts due to the lack of power over the other guys. Its a bit of a struggle, my margin for error is a lot tighter then others. It would seem the larger the track the bigger the disadvantage.
This leads me to my question. How much hp and torque am I loosing to the rest of the field? Most guys are running 1250's. If I had to guess its about 20+ hp, as far as torque I haven't a clue. Funds are tight and hopefully I can get my Hank Scott 1200 in for a rebuild over the offseason.
Thanks,
Eric
