Nitro Funny car runs 1.56@86 MPH
well after testing a brand new clutch system and some other small things, my car came from 2.30's ET range of 81 MPH to 1.79, 1.67, 1.61, 1.5639 and then with a backed up 1.5612 ET's. I still have more left in the power dept. as I din't have the head deck set on semi-kill or kill. I was using Byron's 55% with 9% oil instead of the 6% oil fuel and I left the engine just a tad rich based on reading my glow-plug with a 10X magnifying glass. Here's the tickets and car.

RE: Nitro Funny car runs 1.56@86 MPH
Thanks man. I recently ran a new best ET of 1.55 getting way outta shape in the process. That pass would have been a 1.53 pass had I been arrow straight going down the track like I did on the 1.56 passes.
I have some more power in the engine that I "KNOW" for a fact is there but want to get all I can get out of it like it is as is first and then add the newer power making pieces. Can I dare say 1.49 ET's then[X(]. I am going to the World's Finals in Atlanta, Ga. in October and plan to whip azz with this car.

Hello and thanks.
The two most used engines are Novarossi Kangaroo which is on my car now and the Novarossi 35plus21. In fact you have a great engine modifier over there named Brendan and he can get your engine modded to run very fast. Send an e-mail to
[email protected]
he is in Brisbane.
These engines are 2-strokes.
