Going over some old VHS stuff today and dug this up, which was a good day for Chris and the team. This was a COLD test & tune working on the new combination with the tunnel ram, 2 x 750’s, 50132 Lunati roller and it paid off. We picked up over 2 MPH by the end of the day and the biggest change came from adjusting the header length. That’s why I recommend adjustable headers!
So we look back in time with this video – Roger:
About Roger
Driver of our '57 Chev from 1972-2019, Vietnam veteran (A Troop, 3/17th Air Cavalry Scout helicopter Line Chief and later Cobra Periodic Inspection team leader), retired ASE rated automotive mechanic. Roger became involved in drag racing during his high school days and after his stint in the Army ran E & F/MP [Modified Production] here in Division 6 before switching to bracket racing when the '57 became obsolete for class racing. He often raced at Puyallup, Kent-Pacific Raceways, Bremerton, Portland & the original Mission, B.C. track.
The density altitude was GREAT this day in the cold air. From -330 feet to +30 feet above sea level.
Despite the cold track conditions the crew at PR did an EXCELLENT job of preparing the track. Frankly, I love test & tunes where you can tinker with the combination and this day it paid off !
Very cool!!! Always a good feeling to cross a new boundary and see the hard work pay off.
Best,
