Auto One Two worked like a champ. I can’t say enough good things about Joel’s On Joy. I think he is partial to elephants.

Is this a valve body mod that automatically shifts 1-2 and you manually shift 3? I googled but can’t get much on this.

1, 2 is automatic 2, 3 is manual. With the Hemi everything happens so fast and most times I would be late. This will be the first race using the auto 1/2 shift and as bad as I hate to admit it my reflexes are slowing down. The big question is going to be if I can remember to do all thing’s correctly before I stage the car.

After seeing the car on the lift the eye bolts hang down to far to be left on the car during competition. R and R won’t be bad and tie down was much easier.

Dumbo is better than the driver

Dumbo is a little slow in 60’ and it would be real easy for me to blame it on “Elephant Azz”, butt I won’t. The Holley system is working well and believe it or not I can download load a run now.

We have improved on dialing the car. The data logs are easy to read and shows a few places that could use a little adjustment, I think. The ET slip will be the judge. Maintenance on the car before Norwalk.
