Hi there,
Hope you all are doing well.

The day before yesterday I went to Mecca raceway, an 1/8 mile racetrack, with my new car and the Mouse Motor.
First pass 7,56s/144.46km/h(90,28mph) second pass 7,45s/146,7km/h(91,68mph), the track conditions were very good.

I am now preparing for Bug Run this weekend, hope to see some of you there.

BTW I still have a Big Grin from ear to ear in my face.

Regards
Johannes

Hi Johannes!

The big grin is on my face too.
Congratulations!!!
This is fun.
Apart from the engine I do love the interior of your car.  I intend to do the same of putting in some beutifying stuff.
It comes out very good.
I have my Tetra Pak friend with an ugly blue Chevelle runing 10-12 rounds down the strip last Wednesday (503 cui / 550 hp injected daily driver, 7.70s) and he was very impressed with these beetles. I guess it was Niclas in Herbie 53 in the other lane?
He was so excited about it all that he picked up the phone and briefed me long distance.
I am very proud on your behalf.
Good luck at BG.

A very nice car!

In the setup list I see you're using a 180mm flywheel. I'm thinking of buildling myself an engine but everyone advices me a 200mm flywheel. Why did you choose for a 180mm flywheel?

11.58???

I cant melt it. Over breakfast I just did not get it too match.
What have you done?

7.5 on the eighth is just barely in to the 11.99 on the quarter. Now the 92 mph indicates you could cut another tenth at MECA on the eigth.
92 mph on the eight could get you in to 11.8 (maybe 11.7) on the quarter if you have an extremely light car but I think you have mentioned around 730 kg and that is 1600lbs.
Is the 11.58 correct?

Help me understand.
You need another 20 hp compared to the 92 mph so have you lowered the weight or what have you done since a week back?
Now it will be very interesting to see what mph you had?
112 mph / 180 km/h ?

Do you know exact weight of car and yourself? Stupid question. Knowing you, ofcourse you do.

That's an impressive time for sure. Looking forward to seeing if you can squeeze any more out of it.

 Cool

monkiboy's 69x101 Angle Flow "mouse motor" should be interesting!

Hello,
Thanks for all "con grats".
It has been a really nice weekend with some good 1/4 mile passees with "The Screaming Mouse".
First pass went 11,79s/174,00km/h(108,75mph), second pass went 11,58s/177,01km/h(110,63mph) which I have some doubts about.
The time seems to be wrong but the speed are correct, it is a pitty because it was my best pass which also shows from the top speed, a realistic time would have been 11,70s.

So far the 11,79s is the fastest but maybe I can squeese a little bit more hp from the engine and do some more adjustments to my new car and hopefully cut a tenth or so.

Best regards
Johannes
