Ted, I'm sure you will cut couple of tenths off of your times, so you will give us good pressure with your stroker motor. We really should have gone a lot faster this year, but maybe this "one tick at a time" approach with turbo screw is wiser than that 2012 " hmmm.... half a turn ain't gonna hurt anything" method BigGrin. By the way, how much stall do you have and what is your rear end ratio? Maybe we have to lower a little our gears from 4.29 to 4.11 to get some more top speed...?

Hollow Head (8/17/2014)
Six runs during final round of Finnish Drag Race Championships in Motopark raceway and engine is still in one piece. Lost in third round of 32 car ladder. Good news is that all runs were under nine seconds and best was 8.644 and it is now new European Record! And as a back up 8.660 is also good one.  Also our best top speed is now 245,49 km/h. Previous best was 243 km/h. 2 kilos of boost is NICE!
8.845 / 245,49
8.674 / 231,89
8.660 / 238,42
8.661 / 244,25
8.644 / 245,03
8.715 / 245,03 !!!

That’s an excellent run of numbers and it’s good to see the car going rounds with fewer issues.  For awhile I thought you might let me slip back into the #3 all time quickest slot with my current combination.  You have definitely lowered the mark to the point that it will take some serious work to just get to where you are now.  Good job guys.

Columbus would be nice but we need a big sponsor for that and finnish Y-block racing part markets are quite small in today.
