In my class Comp Coupe,it can be leaned back more,but that would mean cutting into the roof,and I dont want to do that.

This was my street car until I got the "race" bug.

I will drive it on the street again,some day.............

its not how fast you go, its how you go fast.

Keith.  Looks fast just sitting there.  Is there a chance you’ll have access to the air/fuel sensors you used last year?  I suspect there will be some serious jetting changes taking place this year with that forced air hitting the carb at 175+ 185+ mph.

Just curious about I know it was once one of the "tricks". You've done a lot of work to make it slicker and it should make a huge difference. Love watching the journey. Thanks, Chuck

There may be,but I dont know it.

I am kinda just "winging" it.

I have studied other cars & asked a lot of questions.

But I will know how it works in about a month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Billy as I have said before one of these times I would like to make it up to the Loring event,I have heard nothing but positive remarks about it.

You need MAP (Manifold air pressure) sensor for that.

Cool car by the way.Thumbs up. Too bad that here never see cars like that, because lack of salt lakes. Or maybe on car shows, but that is not a real deal.
