Not for Nuthin' But Close!

[Billy Nees]

We're back from Numidia. I guess that we had a good outing but it's kinda hard to gauge "good" and "not-so-good" with this car.
"Racing on the Knob" can be very hard on little cars. A high altitude (for a D1 track), a low barometer and unpredictable winds can make it pretty rough on low-powered combos. The car was just barely under the index for the Natl. Open and I wound up losing 2nd rd. when I took too much win light and broke out by .003. The Div. race saw the weather and wind getting worse and by 1st rd. I could just barely run the index but I managed to get by. 2nd rd. was a different story. I couldn't cover the index and lost to an A/SA car by a .004 mov. With all of the close races that I'm losing, I hope that it might be just a matter of time (and some luck) until "Not-for-Nuthin'" goes deep.
On a lighter note, Doug and I seem to be making some headway with the fuel maps and I'm planning on "playing" with the cams before next weeks Classracar race.
