Car definitely needs sorting.

Was second time to the strip and first time I have even made a full pass.

The options were to try and get heaps of shit done before Jamboree and risk not being finished in time (99% chance of that) or run it how it is, have some fun and get a baseline figure and work out what needs to be done in the future.

After the weekend I know that I need taller gearing as I had to change into OD at about 105mph resulting in steady revs at 5200rpm for some reason?

Need a decent stall. Already knew that but was unsure what rpm to get. I think I will look into a smaller converter than the stock one and not worry about the lockup as it is only a weekender and I really don't think a 3400rpm stall is going to help that much as I am not seeing positive boost until around 4100rpm in 1st gear.

Need to manualise the auto so that it shifts straight away instead of having to back off to make it shift.

Need to get the wolf doing timing so I actually know what it is doing. I was running a toluene mix in it so that it wouldn't pull the timing but there is no way for me to tell if it is working.

I know the car isn't making as much power as it should at the moment and I am going to be doing these things and checking other stuff to improve on that.

I hope I live up to expectations next time Laughing
