test -n- tune night
Hey I finally made it out to the track yesterday to see what the new motor had. But first it was my first time out ever. At 1st I looked like some kinda tard. i pull up to my burn out pull to the line wait for the light to come down and hit the gas and it dies my fuel pump switch was off so i put it in nuetral get her going and drop into gear thinking i dropped it all the way down i up shifted to nuetral hit the rev limiter and i just finished off cruiseing down my second pass i did alright i spun at the light bad. So i go let some air out of the tires let her sit for awhile and try it again. Wow launching like that was the coolest ever so i get down to the eight mile and leans out over heats and i blew a head gasket But thats all in a days fun i aint gonna let that beat me down! fix it try again after i figure out fuel issue

First time out
Hey dude sounds like yer first time out was an abslute flop but you know what you will figure it out.
Ya shoulda practiced launching your ride in your driveway first or perhaps in the your garage.Ya mighta had a little more fun and a lot less embarassing.

Not to be laughing at you but.......... aww hell, I'm sure glad it wasnt' me. Look at it this way, you really can't do worse in the future. Surely it felt good on that last run right up until the gasket let loose.
My first time out, the car was a real turd. Mid fifteens. It has been seriously reworked since and except for my lacking any kind of useful reaction time, it will be a lot of fun since I am only racing me.sixty clicks West of Chu Lai

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
