    Well folks just to make a post . I ( YES me) have been racing Blue thunder and she is getting better and faster on ever pass ,friday night street legals ,first times around 4 pm 12.45, 12.26,12.02,11.86,(11.67 @118 miles pr hour around 9 pm,) on pump gas(94 octane) with m/t street radials that has been my best so far .There is no racing at our track for another week and a half so im going to re-adjust the valve lash,adjust the timming and drop the tire preasure from 14 pounds to 12 pounds and try to break 11.40 ,then i will put the slicks on and see how that goes .:thumbs2:
