Default Ohio Boys Racing Updates

We are getting closer to making it out to the track finally. Both engines are in, new partial wraps are installed, getting the suspension aligned and set up this week. Still have a quite a few little things left to do, but hopefully within the next few weeks we will get to the track for some testing! Here are some pics, they are not the best quality but it works.

Not quite sure, looks like the place we were at is doing a wide body on it or something.

Same as before, Turbo placement hasn't changed for me, we built the headers to match my hot side so the dump is still a 5" to 3.5" Y that runs through the fenders.

Both cars run in the drag radial class. Actually both cars are pretty much set up the same except for a few little things. The main difference Mike is running the distributor setup on the front of the engine and Mark is still using the coil packs.

Both cars are new setups this year, so not quite sure yet. If your asking about the coils and distributor they both work fine. I'm sure they could chime in with any differences. Mike was having issues with the coils, so he switched the distributor setup, but Mark's has been fine with the coils.
