ATTS Event #3 - Drags at Cayuga

[tashko]

Well, I didn't get many runs in but at least I diagnosed my mis-fire issue!

I was going to re-gap my plugs to see if that was the issue but cylinder #1 plug wire came apart in my hands. Problem found!

Thanks Rob 'caveman' for McGyver'ing a plug wire for me and Mau for giving me a lift!

Now to figure out why my boost controller isn't working so I don't have to let off everytime the boost builds!

My best run was:

R/T - 0.595
60' - 1.841
330 - 5.690
1/8 - 8.939
MPH - 79.31
1000 - 11.660
1/4 - 19.932
MPH - 101.23

My best R/T was 0.493 and best 60' was 1.789.

Not bad for essentially first time out, mis-fire, messed up boost controller, and bad 3rd gear sycnhro! <end excuse generator> :-)

I'm hoping the car will, at least, do low-12's when it's working right...next year.
