By the time I got around to registering, the Texas Mile registration was closed. For now, I'm setting my sights on 2016. My 1.5L engine will be on "Phase 2" of a 3-phase plan in 2016. A new transmission, clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, etc. are going in over the winter to support a bit more power.
I have given up on my old trailer (which was stolen over the 4th of July weekend) being found. I have purchased a new trailer, which I'll be picking up next week.
I did make another significant purchase recently......
The current H/DT record at Bonneville is 135.003 mph, set in September of 2014. We went faster than that at The Ohio Mile in 2015, before the clutch went away and we blew a boost connector apart. For the purpose of making a statement and then holding myself to it, I'm going on record as saying that we intend to run over 145 mph at Bonneville in 2016 with the 1.5L engine.
If time permits, I will also be using a 2-liter engine in 2016, which will be in "Phase 1" of its advancement. With that engine, I hope to be flirting with "Parachute" speeds at Bonneville.
Right now, I'm trying to regain my Mojo, and get the project plan back on track for 2016.
Steve.
