tried 1,4 bar (20 PSI) today but outside temperature was high and ignition advance was in safe numbers, so not much improvement in power but just test, that engine can handle that boost

I was at youngtimer meeting yesterday and there were also 1/4 mile drag race and Roxanne ended second overall - only AC Cobra with supercharged 4 litre engine was faster so I am quite satisfied

I was running 1 bar(14.5 PSI) and final speed at 1/4 mile was about 180kmh(112mph) and the time was 14,96 with reaction time of driver (my reaction was pretty slow :-( )

here are also some pictures from the parking

Must say I neglected this topic for a while but the car performs really well! What are the results from using the fuel cooler?

fuel cooler is one part of insurance against detonations - It´s not gonna add some horses, just safety I hope.

and good news - I have finally rear 5x120
now with Zenders for a test, later with Alpinas 10x17" :-)
