I left them outside and it poured the following day.

Don't get smart with me mister

Finished boring out the adapters. They need some cleanup to smooth out the bores. I started small so I didn't over do it. Had to mount them all up to check clearances and take sweet pics.

The throttle bores are 1.68", and the manifold bores are 1.74" so that's fine. The narrow part of the bores in my adapter plates are 1.51", so I'm going to ramp those on both sides to meet the manifold and throttle body.

Hopefully have it all mounted up/plumbed/wired by the end of the weekend.

I don't know that I'll have the time to tune it for Fall Crawl.

Maybe, but I doubt it.

Looks like I'll be taking my junk to it's first race down at Southwick Moto-x. Check it out at http://www.cc4w.org if you've never been. I'll be doing the eliminator class.

Have a few last minute safety things to take care of (like overnighting a firesuit :laugh.

Slapped a hood on it.

I have Friday off from work so I should be able to get everything done in time.

I'm hoping to do some Line Mtn stuff next season.

I have been looking for a good reason to go to one of these.... that may be it. Keep me in the loop for when your doing this.

 

[MoparManiac]

You got it Andy :thumbup:

 

[chedisme]

Your half way to a shaker hood.

Good luck. And get some one to get some pics/video.

One of my friends said he wants to mount his go-pro on it for the race.

I told him I'm not responsible for it :laugh:

clear the 60 foot tabletop and ill take video

no balls

 

[MoparManiac]

I think I'd have to do about 100 mph to clear a 60 ft tabletop considering how much my MJ weighs.

 

[5spd_xj]

You THINK. Wouldn't it be better to KNOW?

 

[ktm racer 419]

dude, its a tabletop and you have kia bumpstops, just launch it, whats the worst that could happen?

Oh, and because 440.


Last time i went up there maybe 4% of all the racers gave it hell and cleared the tabletop. and when they did, they were badass. Everyone else was boring.

Don't be boring.

You're an engineer, you should realize that mass has nothing to do with the time it takes an object to fall (assuming no significant air resistance, which is true of a 2 ton truck falling from heights that won't result in death.)

It only affects how much the landing hurts :laugh2:
