Rained most of the night/early morning so Tuesday's "Mardi Gras" racing was canceled, but Test and Tune followed by bracket racing is ON for Wednesday night, and I "have permission" to take the GTO since my wife is working.
I'm going for the 12.8 or better time. If I don't make that time, and it's not traction problems, I hope to come close! Other than any minor tweaks to the carbs, and playing with the timing, nothing else to do to make more power, and I'm certain that the 421 is putting out more HP and torque than the 389 my dad ran his 12.8 with.
If the reason for not making it is traction problems, the new replacement rear axle housing is going to have some adjustments available to address that.
I'll let you know Wednesday night or Thursday morning.
