The holy grail video would have been seeing inside the cylinder but the valves appear as being closed. At least we now know what the injector flow looks like.
Those injectors are a fairly narrow spray pattern and they point at the valves pretty well. You can see some pooling on the walls at low rpms which implies that injector placement might be more important than I realised. Anyway, that's all I can learn from that, it was scary so it would be nice to learn something, anything
I sure wish I could come see you at the track this weekend, however I'm moving to Savannah and need to do house chores,,yeh.

Absolutely incredible work on that engine, and having seen how well the chassis is sorted, I know that thing is going to be a terror at RA.

Shoot us some video please if possible because I'd love to hear it making the hill up turn 1 and screaming into 10a.

Great stuff, Bro!
