Bracket Race Vehicle(s)

Some plans have changed slightly for the race car:

Gear change is complete with a 3.55 ratio & not the 3.60 ratio.

I forgot to mention we wanted to change the converter stall we were between 5,500 & 5,600 stall. We had wanted 6,000. I talked with Hughes & they stated I would probably see a 300-400 rpm increase with the rear gear change. I guess we'll see.

We ordered a Shaver/Wesmar gear drive system. Milodon didn't have a part # for my application. RCD was a long wait.

The new EFI wiring harness is getting cleaned up this weekend. We're doing some other miscellaneous wiring/accessories.

Still on schedule for firing up the Banshee this weekend & getting a few very short test hits in to check the tune & clutch. While we don't expect too many issues. The big change is in the fuel. It had a well sorted out dyno tune & track tune on methanol. We are starting from scratch with running Q16 with no dyno tuning. See if I can remember to take video.

Hoping to get all 3 vehicles out for our season start in Jan. I'm not sure the car will make it in time.
