How many passes next year?
unless you want to chance re-ring mid season.....
At my rate, that would last a long time.


That is a good question. History indicates I will probably put 140-150 passes on it in 2011. But I am considering running less often.

I was planning on cutting back racing in 2011 (100 passes?), and not taking the motor apart this winter. But when the oil filter gasket blew out at the finish line, that made my decision to do the tear down. I want to inspect everything, especially the bearings; and perhaps change the rod bolts, rings, etc.
