I noticed this also, got .25 for a couple of sentences. :( Oh well,
so much for points gouging...

Does adding a photo still help with the points I wonder?

Here's a shot of my interior:

I you can't read it, it's mostly GPSs and Logging equipment, plus the
roll cage and 2 fire suppression systems.

Yes George, please do tell. Can you start a new thread for it tho? We want to know.


Sorry about that, I'd already posted before seeing your note. Can you
put it into another thread? Or should I post again in a separate
thread?

The best nav unit that I've found for Open Road Racing is the
Garmin III+. It allows you to see the map and 4 selectable
readouts. I used Current Speed, Avg Speed, Max Speed, and
Elevation. I used 2 of these, on for me and one for the navigator,
mainly because the screen was small and the angle of view is
restrictive.

Image

The newer Units don't allow me to select these readouts. The
Garmin Street Pilot 2610 has fixed readouts and the 2620 allows
me to select a couple of these but not all, but the screens are bigger
and in color. So I use them to show the road and "waypoints" and
use the Garmin III+ to show the detail readouts. The waypoints
points I can mark on the map, I enter the turns and the estimated
speed through the turn. That way it'll scroll by as I drive. The
navigator also has a spread sheet with this info, plus the times to
each mile marker. When he is not timing a marker, he can tell me
the turns, but if he's timing, then I have to use the GPS.

That was my top speed at the 2006 Pony Express 130, which was about
2 miles before the speed trap where I was going 187 mph. I won the
160 class at that event. I am hoping to go a lot faster this year :)

Where did you mount the flux capacitor? I found that behind the rear seats is best....

Also glad you cleared up that Aluminum pedal theory there, I thought those were some hydrolic pumps to gain lift at rail-road crossings..... :mrgreen:

Man I wish I had a flux capacitor, I wouldn't be working so hard to hit
200+ mph. Well I guess it's probably better I don't have one, because
I don't have any rear seats to mount it behind. I'd be banging my head
against the wall trying to figure out why it wasn't working right.

The Aluminum pedals help transmit my internal energy force to the engine.
I heard that's good for at least 10 mph :) Lot's better then NOS
and Type R stickers.
