Just got back from racing at Kelowna, and am still to wired to go to bed. So had to post a video on youtube. First race I was making sure everything was ok with the 14.7 pound spring I put in, then once I saw it was only just shy of 12psi I booted on it, and just barely lost . All the other races are kinda self explanetory. I could have raced once more but decided to put it on the trailer after winning the much hyped up Nissan GT-R ( Nissans supercar) race, the laughs about that one from a few people before the race were priceless, I was on a hair trigger for that race, and was on quite the high after winning, so I figured that is the best way to end the year.

I don't know why I ever doubted the dellorto in the first place. Was looking for the 11 second pass at mission ( but only could manage 9 psi boost), so that never happend, and then was looking for the 7 second 1/8 mile pass at Kelowna since I installed the 14 pound spring today ( which turned out to be a 11.5 Ughh)...that never happened either.....moral of the story is to bring all the springs I have for boost to every race, no matter what I think when preparing
What I have noticed about Kelowna is I lost about .3 tenths and 5 mph with the same boost at 4300 feet compared to racing Mission without changing jetting to compensate for the thinner air, so next year will be the year to forsure get my 11 second 1/4 pass once I get the boost to 14 pounds. Ultimatly looking for a low 11 run with a singleport once all the bugs are worked out. Of course that is easy to say, doing it will be the hard part.
