Danny did wicked tonight, That little bugger kicked my ass.
I on the other hand still have a gremlin somewhere. As soon as I hit 3rd it just dies off. I had a slight feeling of what the car will be like when I figure it out, 3rd pass it kicked in for a second while in 4th and it felt great.

Oh well I guess theres next year.
Thanks to everyone who came out to watch. Shane for the hook ups
Chris for the ride and Wayne for the dist and moral support. :rockon:

Looks like I finaly found the Gremlin that beat me last Friday at the drags.
The booster venturi was loose enough that if you pulled hard on it you could make it move up a 1/4 inch and block the fuel passage also letting the main vent to float in the carb body. It was hard to pull it up with your hand but when you reved it and held it there it would slowly start to vibrate and move upward until it pluged the passage.

If the weather holds out for Friday I'll go out and make one last try for the year.

Just checked and it looks like it's rain for this friday and it's the last street legals.........Bummer.

Oh well if it changes I'm going out.

Ummm, Why? It's fixed :P

But before I found out what it was I tried another Pertronix.
It's all good now that the booster problem is fixed.
