and that is a long ride Professor!

bbbenny 04-06-2017 11:04 AM

This friday;s track rental is cancelled. But there is a test @ tune at Numedia on sunday. It will be the first time out with the freshened up motor. The Dutchman

Salvatore 04-06-2017 02:19 PM

Sunday should be much better. Hopefully the air is good so you can get a good reading in that altitude!

wheelhop 04-11-2017 01:18 AM

Dutchman, do you have an update on your weekend activities?

bbbenny 04-11-2017 10:52 AM

the weather was great on Sunday. But I have a big vibration in the car. I did one pass and the cars not right. Trying to figure out the problem? The Dutchman

Salvatore 04-11-2017 12:22 PM

you didn't change anything from last year did you Prof? Just freshened the motor?

67 Nova Boy 04-11-2017 03:02 PM

Did another test@tune. Yesterday. I think I got a trans issue? Will talk to my trans guy on monday. The Dutchman

Salvatore 04-16-2017 09:16 PM

Trail and error Prof. That A/MP record is going down once you get dialed in.

bbbenny 04-20-2017 10:42 AM

Hoping to do a Test @ Tune this saturday. To see if I got the issue fixed? Will post the info, over the weekend! The Dutchman

Salvatore 04-20-2017 12:07 PM

Go for it. You are on the right path.

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY 04-20-2017 03:26 PM

Maple Grove??

bbbenny 04-20-2017 04:23 PM

No Marlin, Going to Numedia. I like the way you get treated at Numedia. Better people! The Dutchman

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY 04-20-2017 06:33 PM

Ok, :( We like Numidia a lot, it's just a tough pull compared to MGR. We'll catch up to you sometime this year.... Good luck!

wheelhop 04-22-2017 03:20 AM

Good luck Benny, I have confidence you will solve the problem.

When are the East Penn Plumbing '17 Race Team shirts coming out?

Saturday was a rain out at both tracks. Sunday was the first points event at Maple Grove, it went well :grin: This kid is coming for you Benny....

earntaz 04-24-2017 03:15 PM

Marlin -- that is one sharp looking mini-digger ... TAZ :youguysrock:

bbbenny 04-24-2017 05:50 PM

Did a test @Tune on Sunday. Still have issues, have to keep looking. More checking tomorrow. Not a good start for the season! The Dutchman

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY 04-24-2017 11:12 PM

Benjamin won that tool box with some Snap-On tools in it as well, he plans to finish his Nova and give bbbenny a call out - Street Outlaw style! :grin:

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY 05-02-2017 02:36 PM

No call out this week Benny, Benjamin went out first round on Saturday and third round on Sunday - from the top to the.....middle! :(

bbbenny 05-02-2017 08:31 PM

Marlin, Why don;t I call you out. Two nova;s going at it? You will get to leave first! The Dutchman

Salvatore 05-02-2017 08:59 PM

be nice Professor. You would scare that yellow Deuce.............. and maybe even the driver.

wheelhop 05-03-2017 03:24 AM

Time for Marlin to start his own thread

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY 05-03-2017 05:36 PM

No Jr Dragster Dad has time for his own car, duh!!!! :grin:

bbbenny 05-12-2017 11:21 AM

Hoping to get out this sunday! The weather isn;t helping out. Plus still have a issue, that I can;t correct! The Dutchman

bbbenny 05-19-2017 11:01 AM

Going to a test @tune on saturday. To see if we can get the car, working! If not the motor has to come out. The Dutchman

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY 05-19-2017 01:40 PM

bbbenny 05-19-2017 08:20 PM

Marlin, I;ll be at Numedia.

Give me a call if there's anything I can help with.

bbbenny 05-20-2017 12:02 PM

Thanks Eric! BBBenny

Salvatore 05-20-2017 02:17 PM

BBBenny will be dialed in real soon. I know it!

YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY 05-23-2017 07:18 PM

Will you be at Numidia this weekend?

bbbenny 05-24-2017 11:19 AM

Marlin, still got car issues to straighten out yet. Plus it;s going to rain for sunday @monday. BBBenny

Salvatore 05-25-2017 02:44 AM

worse year I can remember for timely rain at the drag strip.

bbbenny 05-28-2017 11:27 AM

I;m going to try today. To see if the car works any better? Then it;s, pull the motor time! The Dutchman

VintageMusclecar 05-28-2017 04:33 PM

You find anything after our conversation?

DW31S 05-29-2017 08:43 PM

Hi Benny, I'll throw my 2cents in if I may; did you find the vibration? Is your car an automatic or a stick? If you need help with people pitching in on local track rentals, I know some people that might be interested. I do some nostalgia stuff and we're always testing; we run sticks, mostly Jericos. I'm not driving the race car yet due to a spinal fusion, but I still might be around a little. If you're planning to attend Cecil on June 10, the place will be on overload, not a good day to test. I've found that Wednesday evenings at Cecil are almost as good as a track rental. We are there in line when they open and by 9:00PM we are ready to pack it up with a good 5-6 runs and the best part is the price.... last year it was $15.00 at the gate!

bbbenny 05-31-2017 10:33 AM

My car is an automatic. Turbro 400. I;ve been talking with my engine guy, since the motor was put in. I;m pulling the motor out today. We think it;s the cam timing? Because we checked everything else, that might be the problem. But thanks for your interest, in my issue. Hoping to be back together over the weekend? The Dutchman

67 Nova Boy 05-31-2017 11:36 AM

Good luck BBB!!

Hope you find the problem and get back out there...

Dave

bbbenny 06-01-2017 11:36 AM

Took the motor to my engine guy. The timing is on the money. So it;s not the engine. Something on the outside of the motor. Possible ignition? Who knows! The Dutchman
