Re: The newest drag racer gears up!
Still working on this car, not sure what is causing our drastically slow ET's - just checking everything right now, its like a completely new learning curve - anyone ever wonder how to check the timing on your lawn mower engine? Me either! Several nights spent working on it into the early morning hours - unfortunately, no measurable gain yet.
Couldn't hit the Nova Nationals due to work schedule, so we went to the Grove. We had 2 time shots Saturday, running a 17.66 and a 17.45, dialed a 17.55 and Benjamin ran a 17.67'ish - told me he lifted a bit! Oh well, he was trying to drive the stripe, she caught him at the end running a 7.94 on a 7.90. Good race.
We are working on any possible idea right now, hope to hit TnT this Friday night at the Grove. Nothing better than seeing a huge smile on your son's face as he's taking off his racing jacket at the end of the race - time slip in hand, just thrilled to be racing. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
