Those muffler bearings are getting harder to find since they are installing them in all the new cars from Asia. I have been working hard on my pool game in my spare time since I am going to Vegas for a big tournament in two weeks. When I get back I will install my new Flatzenhammer valve which should get me the performance I am looking for and hopefully have some cars ready for the next race. Flatzenhammer valves..........I've heard of those...lol. Dave I hope you can make it to the race. Hope to see you there. Jeff |

Finally took a little time to put one of my N/TF together. Of course I have not tested it yet, but it is ready for testing. Now to put the other one together. |

Hope everybody is getting there N/TF's ready. I have run both of mine down the track. Of course they are really slow. I still have time to fix that though.

Trying hard to get a couple ready. First test flipped over the catch and bent the axle and broke one of the ball bearings. Second test slammed into the catch box and sheared the body mount flush with body. Times are okay nothing great.

Just now starting to test on my two. I have been correcting downforce and body issues. Ready to get into it now. My times are nothing great either, but the cars are definitely solid. I need to find another .05 - .07.
This is my favorite part.....track tuning.

Just blew my fastest motor,   dang it. I will still race FED just not very fast. That car was running solid mid 4s. The #2 car runs a 5 every now and then. I guess it is #1 now. Now I have to build another car  . |

Honestly I don't like to hear that you (or anyone) burned up a motor, but Peter said it right......you can wind and drop another motor in blindfolded standing on your head. I always expect your cars to be fast. This time is no different.
