Jeff, Please put me down for 2 in each class, plus PSO and 4GO. Do you have any historical ET data for cars in these classes @14v? Thanks, Bill Bill I ran Stock Tjets at the 2019 Winter Nationals. Here is the link to the race thread and below that is the Qualifying order for that race. nitroslots.com/thread/4625/2019-winter-nationals-creek-dragway?page=1Tjet Stock Qualifying order @ 14v
1) Dave632 GTO 1.228et 2) Hairy Canary GTO 1.259et 3) Dave632 Camaro 1.386et 4) Gnome Wagon 1.397et 5) Nosubfor3 GTO 1.400et 6) Kstocks Mustang 1.407et 7) GTS Nova 1.443et 8) Ecbill Callenger 1.548et 9) Nosubfor3 Camaro 1.570et 10) Kstocks Mustang 1.638et 11) Kiwidave Torino 1.813et 12) Kiwidave Thunderbolt 1.920et 13) Eagle Racing Camaro 2.158et 14) Mazda Cougar 2.488et 15) MustangPaul Mustang 2.564et 16) Sandfly Henry J 2.712et This is the link to the 2014 Labor Day Nationals and the Qualifying order. Street Class was 3 gear Stock at 13.8v. This was my race and was run on AFX Tomy track with one 30v 10a power supply and a Trackmate Basic timing system. I would expect better times on the current set up. Hope this helps. nitroslots.com/thread/3588/2014-labor-day-nationals-friday?page=1Street Class qualifying order:

I can get the 3G stock AFX running very well but I have almost no experience with stock T jets. Most of my tuning tricks will work on both however. Should be fun to try something different. Allow me to refresh your memory. You ran two at the 2019 Winter Nationals and Qualified #1 with a GTO and #3 with a Camaro  . nitroslots.com/thread/4625/2019-winter-nationals-creek-dragway?page=1 |

Shows how good my memory is.  Well now I can look for those cars and sweep the dust off of them, if I can remember where I put them.  Who can get a 3G AFX into the .9s @ 14v?

Jeff, please sign me up for 2 in each class. And 1 PSO in the Shark Pool. Thanks, Gale Gale I have posted the Outlaw Lists and Shark Pools. You have been added to the PSO Shark Pool. But you will most likely find yourself in a spot on the List to start out. I do not expect every car to show up and a couple are due to fall off if they do not show up for this meeting. What kind of car is it? |

What kind of car is it? I'm unsure of the body at this time  . Working on the chassis for now. I dug 8 or 10 out of storage and am going to see what I can make competitive for the PSO and then put together 2 for the stock class. I have 4 different bodies I'm considering, all stock AFX, 70 Dodge, 68 Camaro, 70 Camaro and a 57 Vette (no carbs on hood). Which ever body turns the best time on the PSO chassis is the one it'll be  . I hopefully will know in a week or so and will let you know as soon as I know. Thanks for putting me in the Shark Pool! |

I was just asking what kind of car because I was curious what you had chosen. I don't need to know for any other reason. Take your time. |

I have started tuning the cars and it appears the difference between the AFX style chassis and T Jet with stock arms @ 14 volts is nil. So far my quickest and fastest is a T jet but only by a small fraction.

14v testing started today in SC too. So far Tjets only. Results are encouraging as the top 4 cars are .2 faster than the entry sent in last year. 2 are Dash, 2 are Auto World. Hopefully there's more good left in them. Having fun!  |

Hopefully there's more good left in them. Having fun! Having fun here, too! My Tjet Nova from Jeff's last 14v race is about the same, can't seem to get much more out of it. A new Chevelle is about a tenth quicker and shows a little more promise. The old Magna Traction cars I'm trying to piece together are showing a little more go than the Tjets and it looks like I might wind up with a couple that will be fun to send. Building 2 PSO cars also at present and have a ways to go before one of those will be competitive. I'm finding these pancakes an extremely fun challenge . |

I also find the pancakes fun. The last time Jeff ran a stock class for t Jets I sent a bog standard Autoworld car but this time I am building one that hopefully will be a bit more competitive. |

I have still found no advantage between the T jet and AFX style chassis running them stock at 14 volts. All cars are running a few hundredths apart with similar MPH.
I know the AFX are quicker and faster at higher voltages.
