Are you doing a header wrap or header blanket?
Again, thanks for all your help. James and I wish you good luck this weekend.

We dont recommend wrap. I dont see the header causing any heat issues whatsoever. We ran our EL on the shop car for 5000 miles no problem



Eric got the decals today. Ill send you tracking after I finish the product shots ect

Sorry I misunderstood . When I get one, I wouldn't header wrap it either.
Eric- hope u could provide dyno figures and impressions later (after the Pro)

What a weekend at the pro, the car isn't working the way it should. We made some changes between morning and afternoon, it helped but not enough. On my first left side run in the afternoon I came in with a time faster than anyone in the class. I went back to look at data and video to see what I did better, but nothing added up to the time. So I told the people in charge that I got a false time, and will get a extra run on the left.

We are going to make a big change to the car in the morning, hopefully it pays off.

Looked like no help today for Eric but Corey ended up 3rd about 1s back. What was going on with the car?

Looks like Andrew pulled out the win with his final two runs. His winning last run he had a 2.5 60' so he must have been going for broke on course. It looks like he had the worst 60' times in the competition, you guys were running pretty consistent low 2.1s.

The car had a bad push mid turn, and loose on throttle. We were way off of Andrew and Jeff. I had a lot of 2.1 60 ft, it wasn't a true 60ft though. I made it to the final 2 in the bonus challenge, I had a 1.2 second lead lead going to the other side and I broke out. Like a dumb ass, I hit a cone in the slalom and finished 2nd.

Congrats to Andrew on the win.

Are you running the KW stock spring rates? If so, did you swap the springs front to rear?
