Title: 2 more car in the 11" this week end in France!! Post by: jr59 on May 27, 2008, 08:19:48 am Hi,, well after some long winter month of work ,we were at our firstdrag race for the season here in France!
So our good friend Laurent O ran best 11.65" with the car and his new 2276cc. And for us, we screwed the 2387cc engine on cedric' car(black hand ) as Ingrid oval is not ready.We finely ran a very good 11.86",with a quite bad 60ft (1.785") and a too long gear box (4.125 with 3.78/2.06/1.38/0.89) .Now we have to wait EBi to run the engine on I girl car with the good gear box and a real race weight car!!! ;D ;D Title: Re: 2 more car in the 11" this week end in France!!
