Had the best damn weekend of racing ever. Saturday night we had midnight madness and Sunday we had test n tune at another track.Got to the track Saturday night and ran three 11.6 passes at 120 or so. Decided lets try to drop the tire pressure from 9 to 8psi. Well i bogged slightly on the...
Last time i went to the track one of the officials told me that i would not be allowed to run anymore until i put a roll bar in. I really did not want to spend the money yet but i had no choice. I got a local shop, Madman Racing and Co., to build me one. It came out better than I expected...

I was wanting to know if anyone had purchased a rollbar or cage from S W racecars. A local shop wants to charge me $15 per foot for chromoly tubing plus labor to bend and weld a cage for me. I can buy a full chromoly 10pt cage from S W racecars for 620 shipped and let the shop weld it in for a...
I went to the dyno for the first time since i got everything finished. I ran q16 fuel and pulled no timing. Afr's were around 11.7 until 5000rpm when i went way rich, like 10 to 1. I was more than impressed with what i made. There is no SAE correction either. I think with a little more tuning...
