We look at the 4 hours of racing at Calder Park as a place to Socialize and talk to the people who love what we love, Fast cars. Good conversations without alcohol.

If you are using the DJR cams that would explain it. They are only good for a few extra kws high in the rev range. There are way better cams available now. That cam was choosen not to ruin the idle long before the stealth was available so its all a compromise.

Bro the reason why your mph is higher with a bad 60 is basicly because you get into your top gear earlier so you mph more... As you get a car to hook better the mph will drop. I have done 139 mph but did a 10.10, next time at the track i did a 9.85 with a 135.. 60 went from a 1.5 to a 1.32
