Index Racing (Engine Build and Tips/Tricks)

You definitely need to be able to run faster and tune back…however you get there. At 3400 lbs you need about 400 hp at the motor. Keep in mind that’s at your worst ambient conditions. The more power you make over that, the tougher it may be to dial it back, especially when the air is better.

Do you know what kind of tree (3 bulb, .5 pro tree)? Trans brake allowed, or foot brake? These will help you decide car setup too.

Will they allow restrictor plates? You can get a set of them, then swap out based on air.

Have fun! Our 12.0 class is pretty competitive…yours will get there pretty quick, learning curve is steep and some folks will already have it figured out.
