I will try and make it this year, keep saying I should go, like this sunday, thinking of making my way over there to watch the racing.

well from the surrey meet last night rob,logg,phil may be going also nad and kentraider but ill let them put there names down

I'll be there hopefully in the GTT as long as I get some little bits done first.

As long as its dry it should be good with the nicely chilled inlet temps for forced induction cars unlike the retro show. :)

I shall definitely be going to this, not sure if I'm rostered for that weekend but I've got lieu leave and plenty off annual leave left :) I do hope your right Logg, the heat buggered me up at the retro show, it was fine going up and coming home but shocking when it mattered:crap:

I don't think it was just the heat mate the pod has a very sticky surface especially on very hot days, you can hear the tyres sticking to the track as cars go up. This adds extra load onto the engine thus showing up miss fires and running lean issues you'd never see on the road.

Just getting the set up right which is trial and error. What happened last time you ran?

What's your carb spec? What boost you wanting to run.

it's a standard carb with a 0.9 a/c and 1.2 second stage. Running about 18 psi. Afr readings were low 12`s at wot going up there. Up the strip it pulled away well then just backfired and splattered so I just let off, I did slash a bit of water over me intercooler before the 2nd attempt and it was a bit better but still misfiring.

ive emailed pod to see what the clue is, ive asked about tickets and maybe a club stand again, im waiting for the response, lets hope the weathers ok on the day:coffee::eek: thanx mick

them afrs sound ok neil, and as logg says with hopefully lower air temps etc on the day the car will act better:laugh:

New poster! (less than 10 posts)

Yeah I'll be up for popping along. Doubt I'll thrash the Tungy up the strip tho

well worth putting ya car up the strip in the dark feels so much faster if yu turn your lights off aswell
