Garrett Taylor

My first set of slicks finally had to be put to pasture over the weekend. I've been watching the wear over time but hadn't put much thought into doing anything about it, but the default Hankook setup ...

Here are a couple videos I have from Heartland Park in KS and High Plains Raceway in CO. Heartland Park SR3 High Plains SR3

Just for informational sake, since I had trouble finding one anywhere else, here's the dyno run from my freshly rebuilt 1500cc long stroke motor.s Attachment : Dyno run_Page_3.jpg

I wouldn't call it oil accumulation on the diffuser - it was more or less dry. I'm not sure if it made it on to the dyno for a break in or not. COVID and all.

My first helmet (no duckbill or spoiler) also had a decent amount of lift, even with the gurney lip. I switched to a Pyrotech Ultra-Sport Duckbill helmet and that has completely removed any lifting ef...

You should come to High Plains next weekend! We could have 4 Radicals out if everyone came.

Does anyone regularly use a service like Blackstone Labs to test oil? I have been thinking about doing that and leak down testing to better log when the engine truly needs rebuilt. Since I am not raci...

I haven't found myself relaxing into the head rest much either - typically on the main straight only.
