Coming off two wins in three years, and a second place finish in the other year, Dave looked to keep the Wally train rolling at TX2K26 πŸš… The first pass off the trailer was nothing to write home about, but eventually Dave qualified 2nd in class with a 6.98 at 205mph, one of only two cars in the class to qualify with a 6 second pass 6️⃣ Qualified in the top half of the bracket, Dave faced a favorable path back to the top. However, the universe had other plans... In the first round of eliminations, Wally launched off the line strong, but quickly set a safety trip for low coolant pressure, ending the run early. This safety trip limited power, preventing damage. In a worst case scenario, an extreme coolant event could have resulted in water under the tires at speed πŸŒŠπŸ›ž The run was over before it started, abruptly ending Dave’s TX2K26 run. After returning to the pits, we found a crack in a coolant reservoir. A minor setback all things considered, Dave and Wally will live to fight another day, back to reclaim the GTR68 title next time around πŸ† With our safety systems in place, catastrophe was avoided and the worst result was a lost race. That’s racing, you can’t win ’em all. Dave and Wally will be back racing later this season, hungry to reclaim the GTR68 crown πŸ‘‘ ⏱️ PB: 6.88 at 213mph πŸ“ˆ Power: ~2,500whp πŸ“Š Boost level: ~70psi 🐌 Turbos: precisionturbo NextGen R 67.9-85 Class Legal βš–οΈ Weight: 3,655lbs with driver #25yearsofAMS #amsperformance #nissangtr #r35 #tx2k ## Stats - **Views:** 0 - **Likes:** 230 - **Shares:** 0 - **Comments:** 6 ## Tags amsperformance, nissangtr, r35, tx2k, 25yearsofams --- Copyright (c) Gondola
