If I add up today's mess, $45 entry fee, $20 food, and $30 in race gas on the ground wasted, and then the cost to get there 1/4 tank diesel, and what ever the fuel pump rebuild costs...I would bet it was all the racing I did the other week that got it to fail this week...Luckily, no fire....That thing was hot! I think its just the duty cycle, its not made for what we do with it.

The night I won, back on fathers day weekend, I went 5-6 rounds plus the two time trails, and the last run killed the ignition...Would not have made another run if I had tried....I think when the rounds start coming, they tend to be like round robin at the end...This puts a good bit of abuse on stuff...

I personally like the A1000 pumps for a lot of reasons. If I have to switch, it changes my whole fuel system and everything has to be re-done.

And tomorrow, I think I am ordering a Bulldog block.....I think we want to go faster...Seems his stuff is in some pretty high horse power cars now. Looking at a low deck 540 and maybe boost.....but that is another conversation.
