So, a few years back the heat index was in the 110s at Indy...not having a a/c car at that time I decided a moddification to old Matchbox would be needed. I wish I had an invertor in it so that I could have drove the car through the pits and to the staging lanes like this, but the 110V window a/c unit worked perfectly IN the pits. I won the race and was reasonably comfortable. As you can see, the mid 17 second dial was when the old tall block 2.5 was used...now the car runs 1 second quicker with a common block 2.5 with NO other changes except being dejetted three times on the secondary jet. The old tb 2.5 had the bs removed while the cb still has them and is VERY smooth. At Milan it was back in the 17 flat range since I ran the big/heavy street tires on it instead of the 55 lb lighter set of 20.5x7x13 tires/rims.
How much longer will it be before this photo joins the "You drive what?" thread that gets emailed around? If you see it, email the link to me!
