Well it's Ball-bearing, so it should spool nicely. will probably not boost more than 14psi.
no numbers yet, as you can see the car is still ------ evenly over 3 tables here, and The frame\suspension\brackets are still in for powdercoating...

I just want one lap around a track. Preferrably a track with street access so I can drive it home afterwards.
