cheers guys,i've got some work to do before next season. swap back to 750 carb, new ignition setup, a small sniff of nitrous and a rolling road session. that ought to improve on the 12.6 so far. it's only been out twice since we finished it but the important thing is it launches and runs straight so i'm happy to put more power into it now.
various names were suggested during the build like 'angrier' but i liked 'russian roulette' as sooner or later it could all go horribly wrong.
here's a vid my son in law took from the startline, watch carefully at the top end as the tailgate comes wide open...... oops we'll check that next time.

and lastly a weekends work would see it road legal but that would compromise it's track use so i guess i'll need to build another gasser for road use (with an fe of course!), oh dear i am upset.
