It's really hard to say for sure..

I made shifts to get to 3rd gear on the west course and didnt make another shift. I remember telling pru that the car felt under powered. Really, saying the...

On old tires, without question you will be getting wheelspin.. You also will be down on front grip. I can only speak to my car, but when it's been stable on old tires for the RIGHT reasons... Then...

Lead seat? I'd guess, she's also shorter and would need a different seat...

Awesome to see Geiger and Cary on the entry list!

These 2 co-drivers need to get registered before the price goes up!

Brandon, would you find someone to co-drive the 88 car..
...

Seems to be the story. 87 car broken axle in Lincoln, 2nd gear in Blytheville. 65 car spun bearing.. Good to hear they plan to attend.



I was hoping you'd say you and Mark arranged to run...

Up to 12.. a quick glance shows some missing co-drivers.

51 - Sho you flyin' solo?
(1)74 - Peo Orvendal
(1)89 - Mike Marich
87 - Mark Lamm
88 - ??

Ray Thomas intends to run.

A big help is communicating with the grid workers that you simply can't sit at the line. Once up to temp we like to have maybe 1 car at the line before we start the car between runs.

We...

Brandon, Great to have you in the class! You deserve the win!

Saturday on the test course we broke an axle. (Next time we'll have spares.)

After much thrashing.. (Mark welded the broken axle), I made a very tough decision to not run the car.

Mark...

Mark and I are in. Assuming nothing unforseen. I'd love to see the CM entry count in the upper 20s this year!

The Tour, May 27th & 28th.

RFB here.

That's not good news... (Try to make it to Peru. I'm guessing it will be the largest "CM" tour pre-nationals.)

7 of us registered thus far... any of the west coasters planning to make the trip?

My shifting story..

As I learned in the Dulon Mark always said it was ok to use the clutch. I never bothered to really try without the clutch all year. Mark also used the clutch at the time...

Jim, I'd be interested in comparing notes... Using both maxQ, and the mph trace from the AIM, very rarely can I see where my shift points are. If I see a change in the slope, it's from a botched...

With time, you'll make those shifts faster.. PM me your email, and I'll send you a pretty useful excel gearing chart. Originally Calhoun's.

We consistently get to about 120 runs before cords.

When the question is asked, "how many runs you can get out of a set?"

Well, if the guy(s) beating you is on new(er) tires. Then you...

Correction! If I'd pay closer attention I'd see that I have a 831C 6015B3 block.. Looks like I have a heavier version.

While I do have a personal love/bias toward my car, I've yet to prove to myself that it's faster than Mark's '73 Dulon... As an outsider, ask Clemens Burger his opinion.. Everytime he would say...

So your saying it could vary. ;)

Iron, hytec, toyota, fast forward billet, yes, mechanical, maybe a titan?, oem, cast alloy, tilton, 711M

Listed on the HPD site, the Honda is 221 lbs. Anyone know the weight of the Kent?

Tom, sounds like really great progress! Like you say, once you get rolling with a teardown it really isn't all that frightening.

I know you had to be upset about not making it to nationals. I...

I've wondered where Brent and Steve have been...

In my mind I've somewhat anticipated 2011 as a building year. Guys buying cars, but just not quite ready to make the trek to nationals. Mark and...

When do I spray my tyres? When the guys that are leading start spraying their tyres! :D

38 degs

Yikes!! Leave the 110, and 100LL at home! 93 is plenty high of octane. Last year at a divisional event the Dulon sputtered all over itself.. We had just made a gearing experiment change, taller.....
