Title: Would have been very close to having a 10 second singleport too!! with video
Post by: Billyisgr8 on August 09, 2010, 12:42:22 AM

I'm positive I would have had the 10 second run especially when we added another 4psi up to 22 total, but too bad I hit the limit of something while trying out a new combo of parts with no prior tunning. That extra 4 pounds boost should have given me another 3-4 mph but instead only gave .4.

Check out my timeslip comparison of my best pass a month ago against fridays best pass on the left with 18.5 psi boost, Either my clutch was slipping, or I have maxxed out the vents in my dellorto and have to step up to larger size.  33mm does seem abit on the teeni size.  I might try no venturi, and just a straight bore of 40mm.

Still a few more races to go this year, will have to see what I can do.  Just as a comparrison Shane, when the Hulk ran the 10.8 what were the 330' and 1/8 mile #'s at Mission?  My car had a great start with the 1.51 60', and then started slowing down  and lost a bunch of mph and et, yikes almost 5mph just in the 1/8 mile.

The anti shocker on the clutch works real well, I went to far with the adjustment on the last pass so have to turn it back to get the the 1" wheelie's only.  Surprising what a bone stock irs suspension can handle.
