Well like I said.... it was REALLY early in the am when the “issue” came up. It was a dang header gasket. Must have burned out on the pass because all seemed ok. Took the win, pulled N and killed the engine. Coasted to return road and went to fire up as always and that was definitely a noise that I was not expecting. I freaked!! laugh2 fixed it tonight and all is well. Water manifold is leaking though so I’ll have to address that too.

My best 1/8 mile pass so far was a 5.79 at Irwindale.... Al posted the correct 1/8 increments for my sat am pass from this past weekend.

Now time for trailer tire shopping! Caught one leaving me on a rest stop inspection. All were 162-164 degrees except for one..... 185! I always carry 2 spares.

Well that’s true Cab.... but the race literally went DUSK TO DAWN. Winner circle picts were taken Sunday AM as the sun was coming up. Famoso at midnight to sun up is a really nice place to be smile. What I screen shot on my phone at 3:50 am Saturday was 67.5 degrees, 57% humidity, 29.10 uncorrected baro, 29.94 corrected, SE wind 3mph, dew point 52, 58.7 grains, 1891 DA. This was an hour and a 1/2 after my 9.21 pass which was around 2100DA.

Thanks for clarifying that up
I don't remember it cooling down that much there when we would go over there to race in the summer, even in late Sept. shruggy
