less than a tenth... That is all that stands between me and Shon's record...
I went out for some testing last night and it went rather well...
First pass 11.945 @ 114.43, with a headwind
1.640 60'
7.616 1/8
89.38 MPH
11.945 1/4
114.43 MPH
Second pass 11.947 @ 114.83, with the same headwind
1.637 60'
7.633 1/8
89.75 MPH
11.947 1/4
114.83 MPH
Third pass 11.912 @ 114.98, with the wind letting up and slower 60'
1.694 60'
7.610 1/8
90.10 MPH
11.912 1/4
114.98 MPH
Final pass of the night 11.860 @ 115.09, after it cooled off a little
1.639 60'
7.562 1/8
90.19 MPH
11.860 1/4
115.09 MPH
I will post up the slips after I get camera batteries, I was hoping to have vids of it but the camera died when my wife started recording the first pass...

Actually I was at 12.5 with all that stuff to, minus the stall I've had that for a while, until mid summer of last year. Then when I pulled all the weight and crap out I dropped quite a bit of time off...

I think I told you this before, but right before the race I'd put a new fuel filter in. Maybe while you're in-between track trips, make a bar that can go in place of the outer most part of the T-Tops (just to keep rigidity) so you can remove them at the track and save 20~lbs more.
if you ever come to atco on a tuesday let me know, im always there. Orange Z28 with Convo Pros

LOL, thanks Tony...
tspence45 - that would be too easy, I have to do everything the hard way, plus I have no time to mess with adding a new set of rockers and tuning it with my racing schedule this season. It is a simple job to swap, but getting everything fine tuned for consistant racing takes time...
