just got first weekend of racing in. electrical issues all fixed. bad surge at idle, too rich, found a stripped fuel bowl screw, not sure if that's the fix or not! still having problems with oil spraying from driver`s side pan rail, gasket will not hold base pressure . had a fresh gasket with rtv on both sides, maybe rings not holding cylinder pressure. never got another 6sec pass but a bunch of 7.0et`s. https://youtu.be/D8dEnmWSuys https://youtu.be/THwUtwbhGZs still trying to get my gopro skills up to par. anyway might have another weekend if our weather holds out, really iffy this time of the year!!

we ran sunday, decided to go with 10% over drive pulley, gave me 16psi but no consistent runs, best was 7.10et worst was 7.31et. off the line felt great , had traction trouble all day which was strange for me. 3rd gear on two runs car felt like it stopped pulling, like it was flat! tried taking timing out, seem to bring mph up on some runs but still all over the place. long winter to think of what is going on! https://youtu.be/jI1gEYbtFZQ
