Hope all goes well at B'ville guys,Streamliners , Lakesters , Belly Tanks etc , are all Waaaay Kooool !! But a 300 mph Doorslammer is TOTALLY F#%&@' AWESOME!!!!!! (I've only got 204 out of mine so far,and hold the DLRA C/GCC record at that speed).
Push it till it goes Bang,Hope you make 300.
Keep an eye out for our Aussie entrant,Norm Harding in a '34 ford Roadster.A few of our guys will be there.
All the best from down under,(wish i was there to see that 302???mph),but someone has to stay behind to keep the country going.
Cheers , Bob.
GOES BANG? Auuug!! Good hearing from you Bob, nice car [put a Procharger on it that would up the speed]
What color and # is Norms 34? I'll say hello if I see him or have him look us up.
We have it redlined at 7500 but not comfortable running it that high especially for very long, I just have to remember to look at the oil pressure, when it gets up around 260 I sometimes forget.
I've only driven once with new engine and was having troubles with blower tube coming off and seeing out of car with bi-focal glasses, so Troy drove the rest of the Bville meet and always drives at El Mirage.
Anyway he says it starts to turn into a real animal about 6500 so he just shifts it, 6750 is 306 mph if my program and tire growth figures are right.
