Class at Denver

1320pro · 07-16-2019, 03:33 PM

So, how does NHRA run class in Denver when there are very few cars entered that are even in the same class? Do they cancel it?

One big combo race.....

With forecast temps around 100 degrees it`ll be a good test n tune for a D.A. around 10,000' plus!

Guys, I am curious, what do you do to run in air such as that? Gears, timing, jets????

Rear gears mostly if I was stupid enough to go to that race !

From the entry list, it looks like 2 or 3 class runoffs and every else in a combo. The NHRA is gonna save $ on wallys for this one...

Well for me, fuel map, rear gear and converter has to change when I go to "good air". Anything sub 6500da is a treat...

At the risk of starting a petty crossfire X-TECH MAN, are all the racers from Oklahoma, Texas, Wyoming, New York, Nebraska, Colorado, and any other state I might have missed, all stupid people because they entered this race? Lighten up, please. Everyone that enters this race knows what the conditions can be here in mid-summer, including me, but you don't enter because you're stupid and don't know better. It may not be anyone's preferred location, but you still have to persevere and run a good race. Again, lighten up.

Nothing - we changed every thing including the kitchen sink. lots of hot work and some money but virtually no improvement.

I thought I broke on the first run I was one second off.

I was walking back from the top end and Bob Lambeck stopped to ask what was wrong - I told him about being a second slower - he said get back in you car - it is not broke.
