    Transmission Carnage

    Sure possible. On Saturday a fellow brought a bolt to me. Looked like a trans mount bolt, 7/16 x .750 NC. They picked it up off the track after my pass. Wasn’t from my car. But I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t part of this deal from the night before.

    Transmission Carnage

    The dude over in the other lane lost a front tire out of the mishap. Was hunting to borrow a spare on Saturday.

    Transmission Carnage

    The track FB page said that it ended the night. Apparently it happened on the big end.

    Transmission Carnage

    Speaking about transmission carnage. This happened at my local track last Friday night. Picture taken by someone else. Who’s not thinking drum. I never heard that anyone had found it but perhaps REM knows more. REM??

    Indy results, frustration

    Man I feel the frustration just reading this and that’s a tough day to work through. The proven set up worked against you. But back to the set up that works and count on a decent track.

    B&M shift cable routing

    Man, you’re doing darned good for your age and it’s nice to see. You sure got lots going on there too but one fire after another you’ll put them out. Now speaking of space issues.. I’m swapping out black Stage V valve covers for polished Aluminum. Well who woulda thought that the Indy...

    B&M shift cable routing

    I run my cables around the right side. The normal 5’ cable works with the front cable exit shifter. Used to burn cables when fmucking around on the left side, switched to the right side years ago, never a problem since. You can fish up in between the dipstick tube and trans also.

    Windy Weathered Points Race Weekend.

    I spotted your weights up front in a recent picture. Great idea! My front shock rebound is only at 50% tight so there’s lots to work with there still. Along with that the normal crappy air will be back which will tone things down. My 60’s are all in the 1.33 to 1.37 range.

    Windy Weathered Points Race Weekend.

    Well a brutal weather weekend of racing is in the books up in Sask Canada. The 2-day points race weekend of 1/4 mile racing turned into 1 day of 1/8 mile. Saturday cancelled altogether and Sunday with a ridiculous headwind cut things down to 1/8 mile racing. Sure glad I threw the heat dish...

    My cursed weekend history continues, Update

    Good news Doug that you got it back into shape both times. Well. I think that first off I’ll read the chassis adjustment about 6 more times. Also thinking that being about a hundred HP and close to a second shy ain’t so bad after all. Still planning to get on a real set of scales but I’m...
