Default Re: The newest drag racer gears up!

Thanks! We've been trying to get to a track for several weeks now, but have had 'issues'. I took a day off of work to button up the engine, set up the clutch for 8.90's, and change the rear gear, then install the engine - not realizing that when I put the oil scraper on the piston it had overlapped itself. Upon firing I had instant 'chocolate milk' for oil and the entire header pipe was coated inside with oil. I'm surprised it ran! Skipped TnT that Friday night, along with Saturday's Jr event at Cecil County as we tore it all apart and figured it out. Pulled all the way to Cecil County the following Friday night only to find out they don't let Jr's run on Fridays - only Wednesdays! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img] Then we got snowed out. Sure is tough to get some seat time right about now.... We can't wait until Spring to see where we are at with this combination, that's for sure!

My little Amanda now says she'd like to race! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
