Learning can be very painful sometimes.

Removing the ego sensors at the time probably sounded like a good idea and might have been manageable on some systems, but as you learned it did not work with your specific software. That being said, I was really impressed with your power and torque for the size of the camshaft (duration).

Same software as last year when the same thing was done.

We left points on the table and the team is aware of that.

It's all good..

The manifold was made by Caleb Newman.

Here is a statement for Mark.
The error was 100% me not having the exhaust right. We understand the dynos are tight, I'm fine with that. The 60+ ft lb dip in the torque curve at the hit and another 40+ ft lb hit higher up was the result of me not having the exhaust right. We had NO dips in the curve at home (and no mufflers on it) This was an error on my part and it sucks for all of the people that had so much time and effort into this because without the torque dips we would have scored 2800+

From my eyes, no error on Mark's fault. This competition is a bitch and things change from home to the school.

Proud to be a part of it.

I wish the EMC would do a class from 6500 to 9500. Real world race motors. That would be fun competition.

Because there are different scales for horsepower and torque. If they were on the same scale, they would cross at 5252
