event full day - racing always is a good test.

temp retard and maybe table switch when using meth when under pressure.
I will someday think of something clever to say.

Correct,.. Do you need to run methanol or would water be enough on it's own..? and have you considered a falcon t-bar shifter as they don't allow neutral to be accidentally selected..

The methanol definitely cooled it down a touch more, but no, don't NEED it.

The B&M won't let you go to neutral either if it's in the right mode :mrgreen:

So water is enough, would that allay your concerns of running lean ..?
Sorry mate didn't know you had a B&M..

And this is about the time Hybrid retreated to under his car looking for the lost horsepower and thanking God for the Holdon part that got him going:

Isn't that the Ford part being used by a Holdon now in a Mustang?

No, scary is the essentially new series of cars that with a chip and exhaust are running high 11's!

This is what I was confronted with when I popped my bonnet at the top of the track. I thought the worst.
You can see the flipped belts on the aircon and on the alternator.

And yes, my top hose is now a 253 item. Although the label has been removed, so other than Kris taking a photo (coz he's an ass) there's no evidence.
Edit: I should also note that my slowest time was after fitting said radiator hose.

On another note - been doing a lot of thinking since, and I don't think I'm going back. Very little to gain and a lot to lose at this point.
The only thing that might get me back now is tuning for the new supercharger pulley.

Jumped a few stages there Jeff, well done mate. I am here for you if you regress.
