Title: Hillclimb not Drag racing, but lots of fun....
Post by: Greg Ward on April 25, 2009, 05:39:25 am

From last weekend about 6hrs North of Sydney...

Practice day was a lot faster, because it was completely dry, but showers on Sunday provided some fun  ;D

Never been here before, my competition had been for a few meetings, old section of disused highway, being leased by the Hillclimb club..

Greg,

A few questions for you; what size engine, cam, and compression are you running nowadays?  Also what rpm did you launch at?

Greg,

Brandon,
Same engine as back in 2005, just had a few minor tweaks to the fuel delivery and twin plugs per cyl, so it's 1915cc with over 10 and less than 12cr  ;D , launch rpm is somewhere between 5000 and 7000 depending on the available grip, that day I'd say 5000 or just over...
Oh, and cam is quite similar to an Engle W140..
