How fast were they running back then with that W5 setup?


If I remember correctly the record was 7.77@177ish. Set it at Maple Grove. I think. The rules state a single 850 for A/EA. Pretty much stock outward appearance, choke horn ect, but internal mods were allowed but no increase in venturi or throttle bore. Throttle blades were measured and then shaft for a combined thickness. We were off by a few thou so we took a pop can and cut some shims from it and sandwiched them between blades and the shaft and passed tech. Oh the fun of it all.
