2020 NTRA Summer Slam at Thunder Road SIGN UP

Looks like a great lot there Gale, good luck at the race. Mine will be hitting the road next week.
I was not sure what voltage Andy  is running the cars at. Said 12v but later says the sets come with 18-19v.
I ran them at 14v since I was set up for Al's race and the SS ran 19 MPH on my track with the stocker hitting 12.
This was at 15.5' which is about 1/2 what they are running there. I found the choke and cap for the stocker and
put it back on. Those items make no difference in performance, they are just there to cut out interference on
your neighbors TV.

Comet/Hank's cars are first to arrive.

What a sharp group of dragsters 😁 I like your photo,

Thanks, Dave Vince & Jeff Wallace
I was at the end of my rope this week,
And had only 2 cars close to being finished 😨
Thank you both for your encouragement and advice.
I kinda was certain what an old-fashioned Thunderjet was, but had some with a traction magnet on the crown gear side 🤔.
Then the question Was what is a 3 Gear,
I wanted not to miss out on this 🏁 Thunder Road Race 🏁 truly out of my Comfort Zone
BSRT, VIPER, SUPER-G and All Tyco's "YA"
But these funny Armatures going Roundabout 😁
Well it kinda seems like rolling the dice
All cars the same within reason.
With help from Dave 🤔 I think I'm driving him Crazy I wanted to text Him many times this last week but told myself I better not drive him "MAD" 🤔 So I botheded "Jeff" I took all the chassis apart and learned how to check the ohm's 🤔 I was very displease, they were reading 18,16,15, and very few were reading 14 plus like 14.7 or 14.5.
By this morning at 5 am up all night,
I had taken 23 chassis apart trying to find a straight-up 14.0 ohm
"Not to be found"
Well to say the least my cars are ready to be 📦 Boxed and 🚣 Shipped,
Coming your way AL.
What a learning Curve Coffee all night and all morning,
There was no way I would ever have been able to sleep.
😨
Man do I have a "MESS" To Clean up, so many chassis to put back together.
Much Thanks from
finistauri

Mike you are not driving me Crazy, I am glad to help.
I could have told you a 14.0 ohm is a rarity and 1 ohm or so does not make much difference.
Proper setting of the brush spring tension is a lot more important. 14.7 -14.5 is good and don't
forget your meter leads and probes add a couple of tenths.

Thanks Al
I did not realise the cars have to be there very soon,
I'll get them out tomorrow.
For some reason thought it was the end of July.
Good thing I stayed up all night.
