I agree the auto isn't the way to go. Someone needs a tranny for those big bore V-twins.

Is that rappy running NOS or alch? That would require the lower compression.

Hmm ... I would like to see a 800cc V-twin running at about 8:1 compression and about 20PSI of boost on a turbo. And a small shot of NOS for the heck of it, maybe a 10 shot.

Now, who has the $$ to build it? lol ..

It's running a 20hp shot of nitrous on race gas. I think he was originally planning on spraying more nitrous but it doesn't look like he needs to lol.

Makes sense b/c the NOS won't like the high compression as well as the low, from what I know.

Anyone know exactly what compression ratio he is running?

Thomez, Samcoeds has the fastest V-Force I have seen around. Its going to take some time to get the set up right. He made alot of people take notice of the V. When he gets internals and nos that thing is going to be a contender.

It would only make sense that you could make one very competetive. You can out-shift an auto that shifts but the snowmobile type auto deal like the Vforce is hard to beat. The only downfall is the power it sucks up. I imagine you could set one up to be pretty damn mean against those coffee can cylinder'd Bombs and Raptors. It would rev much better you would think. I'll have to keep following them because it is interesting to me.
