Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Larry, FI cars have the rule of sixty. If your older than sixty you shouldn't be trying to figure it out. Can you put a carb on it? See you Labor Day weekend. BP

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Now you tell me. Thanks for the smile this morning.
The best thing about my Dodge is working on it to make it completive. We are so slow that I can't complain about the other cars in the class having an unfair advantage. Like they say "If your not the lead dog the view never changes" I'm off to the shop to find some parts in some bar stock. |
Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
We will load up today and travel to Indy points race tomorrow T&T Thursday. Rain rain stay away!

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Well we will see if I helped or hurt the car this week. I did make it legal for fuel check. My black eyes are almost gone from the surgery on my nose. Also installed chiller fittings in the cooling system and a larger fan. Baby steps.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Santa Claws came this weekend. I am now the proud owner of my own ECU. Now I need a backup unit. Thanks so much for letting me use your spare ECU.
We made some progress on going A to B. Six runs within .016 in 60' from morning to HOT afternoon. I even had Patsy filming my burn out and the launch. I'm changing converters to see if I can get Dumbo a little quicker in 60'. I need to add a little weight to help the balance of the car and make it fit the Class. |
Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
We had a family meeting yesterday on why Dumbo is such a slug that spins.
We viewed the runs from Indy. Chris asked the obvious question, have I adjusted on the front shocks to loosen them up. To let the car transfer weight quicker. NO, I felt really stupid that I didn’t do the simple thing first. The good old K.I.S.S. Method. I will try the local track and see what my different converter reacts. |

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
It would not pass fuel check, to much LA. Hot Sauce. But Frank if you do find out please share because we can not get back to that performance.
The weather that day is what everybody dreams about. |
Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Larry,
I feel your pain, but I'm very confident you will figure it out. All the best, Frank |
