Something weird happened...
...a snail snuck onto my engine! For some reason it knocked the nitrous out of the car while it was at it! Oh well, at least the car should run better and hopefully no more fires! (Three total with the nitrous.)

I am almost done, should be on the dyno soon and then will race it in Spokane on the 24th of this month and then hopefully bring it down to Wally World some next year.

Last Friday I got on the dyno and with 20 lbs of boost made 463 hp....
(The engine should handle 30+ lbs!)
-
Last Saturday, I ran it at the track here in Spokane, but first pass the clutch slipped all the way down the track (me being too stubborn, I stayed in it!) It still managed a 10.35 @ 128mph. (The 1/8th time was 6.61 @ 113mph) Once I put the new clutch in and make a few changes, it should be a beast, especially if I turn the boost up!...

Also, here are current pics of the engine...

I am going to try and make the July 1st & 2nd race, I'll update when we get closer... :)

Took longer to finish the car than planned, so.... I am planning on taking it out for the first time this year (and the first "real" time with the turbo) on the 18th/19th of August up here in Spokane. IF all goes well, then I hope to make the last Walla Walla race of the season.

Here is a report from the races up here in Spokane last weekend...

I am taking it back out this weekend up here in Spokane. IF all goes well, I will be in Walla Walla for the last race.

I will have the race bug in Wally World on Saturday. I may or may not stay for Sunday, we will see.
I have an issue above 6,000rpms when I try to run over 15 pounds of boost that I have not sorted out yet, so I will keep the boost at 14 psi. It should still run 6.40s or quicker.

Finally back into the 9's (Quarter mile)
My 9.95 run in Spokane on the 4th of July....
