Sunday for the summit race it would take your shoes off early in the day, then got a little loose later. I had a good day http://www.irwindalespeedway.com/# "Just a Bracket car dressed up like a streetcar"

Sledgie, are you saying slipping a little at the line helped his mph maybe? Im confused. Id say almost 2 mph improvement in the 1/8th has to be more than that to it.

That does give me hope Sledgie and it was still lean which makes me think I either need to install my stub stack or drill some holes in the back of my scoop. I noticed some guys had drilled theres and after every pass or street romp,there`s fuel splash in the venturies which clogs up my hi speed bleeds. Make sense?
