THE END OF A DYNASTY?
KOH
Foot brake racers have ruled KOH for almost a year now. Is that all
about to end?
Hugo Casal, aka **Box Boy, will wear the crown until next week. Hugo
took out Kenny Snow in the final. Good job Hugo.
HALLOWEEN NOVA
Two barrel racing sucks.
I ran the Barry Grant double pumper on 2 barrels, attempting to slow
it down to 7.50 for Sportsman racing. ET's were all over the map –
7.72 to 7.82 in time trials. Then it went a tenth quicker in KOH and
I broke out of coarse. That’s a tenth after dumping too!
The data shows I was too lean on two barrels. Maybe that’s why it
was so inconsistent. A/F ratio was 16 throughout the run – Ouch!!
Real good for the motor.
Traction is a challenge on two barrels too. Doesn’t hit the tires
hard and fast enough.
This weekend I’ll continue tuning the Quick Fuel 1050 carb – hope to
race it soon. Maybe PSCA at Fontana.
Only two more Thursdays’ to experiment with “slow down” ideas before
the first Summit race. Quack Quack!
Cheers,
Tim
