In theoretical terms, will changing to a different sized carburetor change the engine's required total timing for max performance/horsepower? In...
Well, actually it was easy. Ran a 12.525 in practice, dialed-in 12.52, cut a .001 light, and made it to the second round! Got a bye run for the...
Easy peezy, lemon squeezy! :cheers:
Thanks for the comments. My goal for the season is to make the top 58 in points so I can come over for Div 6 finals. But, I've got a lot of points...

Dan, that's what happened later in the day when it clouded up. The guys who made it through the first few rounds were scrambling to adjust their...

Everybody wants to be at 1.3! Mine are 1.8 to 1.9.
The Hoosier 28x9 slicks are doing fine on the car. At 14psi they hook and they're stable at 100mph.
Got five runs on the car today at the test and tune. 12.52, 12.52, 12.63, 12,53, 12.525. The 12.63 was because it spun the slicks about one...
I'm launching it at 2500 rpm. The converter is locking up at 32-3300. Yes, my reaction times suck. I'll work on that this weekend. And, yes it's...
The blue Nova is my car also. It's driven by my son Tom. It ran 13.47 on street tires spinning all the way into third gear. Kinda neat that we...
