Cockpit Tour—How The Gauges Are Used For Fine-Tuning Speed

regardless of their location relative to the driver. So if this is yellow, be prepared for some

evasive action!

—Water Temperature: Keep an eye on this gauge to aid in the fine-tuning of the grille tape

you’ll be using (higher grille tape means more ‘grip’ since less air will be sucked into the motor,

and forced over the car which, in turn, will push the car down onto the road). High ambient

it around 220–230 for optimal operation.

—Fuel Pressure: If this drops below 9 PSI, start looking for the gas station! Make sure to do

some fuel runs at every track to learn the consumption numbers. Nothing can make—or break—

late race runs at victory like an empty fuel tank. And remember; nothing wastes fuel like a good

set of brakes, so make sure you‘re easy on

—Tachometer: You’re going to want to make sure you’re not hitting the rev’ limiter at the end

of the longest straight, and the tachometer is just the gauge to fine-tune that aspect of the

gearing ratios. The tachometer is also critical for the purpose of maintaining the pit road speed
