NOT HAPPY JAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2 Runs were managed by me who rocked up at 6:45, i managed a 16.5 followed by a 16.4.
As you can imagine, coming from 16.1 consistent runs before the accident, something isn't right. The wheel alignment is f**ked so that may have something to do with it, also the fact that the temp was creeping up before the run.
Oh well Insane was running high 16's so not too bad...
I also saw TurboFlash out there who pulled off a 13.5....

2 words: Stall Converter!
I was getting mid 13's and getting over 110mph....slug off the mark with like 2.5sec 60ft times.
And yeah it runs terribly rich standard.

*looks at his time slips* got 7 runs in (5 of which were in a 45 min period, then spent 1 1/2 hrs adjusting the cam timing without the proper tools :evil: and back for another 2 runs)
got a best of 16.766 @ 139.49 kph (86.67 mph), 60 ft time on that was 2.695.. its still a REAL slug off the line - from the trap speed, the car is good for mid 15's :roll: so i'll see what happens when the new gearbox with the 3000 stally goes in
Here are a listing of my 7 runs
run1 : as it came from the 111.9 rwhp dyno, from idle - punched accelerator (no stalling)
run2 : same as before
run3 : stalled it up to about 1500 rpm
run4 : stalled it as far as it would go (1800 - 2000, but bogs down when i take off)
run5 : stalled it up to abotu 1500 rpm
run6 : adjusted cam a few degrees advanced - partial stall (1200 - 1500?)
run7 : same as above, but stall as much as possible (bogged down), but took air filter out (back fired 1/2 track :?)
