Default Re: NMCA St. Louis Ford vs Chevy

As Larry said I made it in and through Tech yesterday. I see that Daren has posted that he is starting to work on the car this morning. I know he hurt a trans at Charlotte and needed to change rear gear as well as making the change to the 2023 Port Injected 350 Combo from the 2018 (I think) 360 Horsepower combination which is Direct Injection.

I know he had to get some weight to make the 3320 Minimum in FS/G with the 350 combo.

I fessed up about my run on Saturday as his runs earlier this year have been visible.
Had weather station COM Port issue but an hour after our run we were at a 103 correction and a DA of 1300 feet. The baro was low but it was cold and dry.

I ran a 9.85 @ 137.93 on the only pass. After looking at the data we figured I needed to revert back to my previous first gear ratio and a higher launch RPM.

I did scale the car while in tech and I am a safe 20 pounds over minimum.

Test pass this morning and maybe a clutch adjustment. We shall see.

Thanks to everyone for following along on our fun!
