Hi All, we're still on the road, we stayed at my brother's place two hours from home.....we'd driven 13 hours non-stop from the lake and it was late so...I'll give a comprehensive update when I get home........The Reverend used his phone to send that last message of his and I guess it was using predictive text.....seagull is probably what the phone thought he meant, it was a SEAL....hey it's all sea-life innit?......
I ran 192 plus on Wednesday and then 193 on Thursday, I noticed a little oil on the cowl after the 193 and when we opened her up it was from the front seal....both runs the car pulled strongly until 195( same GPS top speed each run, I just middle it on the clocks better the second day I think) where it went away.We still have a stock valve train in the motor so whether it's the lifters pumping up or positive crank case pressure we ain't sure but we didn't hurt it so that was good news, we elected not to run it again.Jack, if you're reading this I want to have a chat about a few things.....
Brettie's 231 is a monstrous achievement on a 1000cc Waterbottle that he cast himself, at home, and then tuned....on the dyno he built at home to put in the frame and bodywork he built himself.......at home......
There were quite a few people who finally got 200 this year....three cars in C/Pro thumped it.
In all we're very happy....but we're also filthy, burnt and very very tired...........
I'll tell you more later
BTW: Bob, you got your photo's.....and you're gonna love 'em.
