Video: Roll race testing at Texas World Speedway

Prepping for the Roll Race event at TX2K14 https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...nationals.html. Texas World Speedway is a 2 mile oval. We pace on the bank and then go WOT for about 1300-1500ft as soon as we hit the straight.

These are a couple mid boost passes. Popped a plug out of my powersteering pump vs the Lambo and sprayed pentosin all over the engine. White smoke and all. Was a bit scary. But we found the plug in the engine compartment and popped it back in.

Thanks Tim. I was entering the bank at around 110-115 mph. The surface is crap on the banks.

As usual, thanks for sharing Todd. I'd be near panic mode with wall and cracks/uneven pavement at 110. A foot full of brake pedal with the approaching turn would also cause puckering.

I would definitely give it a go, but I would also pack extra unmentionables.

Todd,

My car did not like the r888 at the mile. Why dont you put the electric power steering in the front and get the pentosin out of the engine bay? You are lucky it only smoked and did not go on fire!
