Fighting the wind really can cause drastic changes, it looks like I was down 2 mpg on the tank I used up Saturday. It seemed the winds were even worse Sunday, at least when I rode over to Lisle.

We fixed the starter cart and got the Pro Mod fired one more time. The purpose was to double check the new ignition box that is a 2 step retard module. With a timing light and watching the timing marks, we verified it is working exactly as intended. That's good news. After heating up the motor, we did a quick leakdown and did verify what we suspected, the motor was hurt. The front was leaking 30+%, usually it's the top ring that is shot. The rear cylinder was leaking a lot less at around 10%.

When we hear what the rules changes are, we will do the winter rebuild and improvements.

It's cool to see you guys campaigning a "twinky" you see very few of them in all but the lowest classes!

[Otto]

There are some definate limitations with the twinkie that you have to work through and around it wasn't designed as a Race application in its current state the original design came from a NHRA race application that harley sponsored before they went to V&H But yet that was completely different animal than what it was released as to the public. being it was streamlined for production and expence to manufacture.

Well...the valve geometry is a little better than the EVO/Shovel even if it ain't up to a Sporty's...and the heads are better too...it's still good to see!
