It's ALIVE !!
 
Wow what an experience - the little stroker motor came to life in a rush. :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE: :cool: :cool: :LOL: :LOL: Thank you Bill and Lewis :cool: :cool: It barks like a pissed off pit bull.

Now I want to finish up and get it on the road. Back to the garage for the rest of the night. %/ **) **) :3DSMILE: :LOL: :LOL:

Congrat's Randy, hope the weather is good down there so you can go drive it!! Do you have tags yet? I had a blast running autocross with my GT349.5 today. Was definitely keeping up with the Cobra's and if it wasn't for that damn carb bog around 2000RPM, I could have been a real front runner, which is pretty amazing since it felt like I was autoxing a taxi cab.

I was out there. I ran 8 runs, best time was 33 seconds. GT40s and cars with slicks set up for autocross were running around 30, 31 seconds.

Jenny's Cobra pulled up late morning, and before the motor was shut down, this was there was already a crowd.

TC - impressive times.

Jenny's Cobra soon to be Randy's Cobra - I know you have removed all of the raffle tickets but mine.

I don't have a tag - hell I don't have seats or a streering wheel yet. %/ I just had to fire it up to get re-energized, plus I wanted to fire it up while I still had it on the jackstands so I could see and fix any little leaks. I have one at the outlet side of the oil line which I will fix in the morning. Keep the pictures flowing. Don't screw up the Atlanta Cobra Club reputation by hanging with the Gasholes.

Congrats Randy,
Glad to hear your stoker is breathing. I thought mine would yesterday, but there are some stubborn leaks at the remote oil filter lines. Probably end up getting new lines and housing :CRY:

Hey if you are not set up with an air cleaner, I found out my oval cleaner I had signed by the man at SAAC sits too high and will not work on my car. Let me know if you are interested.

What the hell have you done to the car , and what is a carb dog ?
Racing is a funny thing, there are always the "if the"s.
20000 rpms is too high for that motor, Mr F1 racer.
