Qualified 3rd and finished 2nd in a 30 min "A" Main. (Mains were scheduled for 45 min but shortened to 30 min due to a rain delay early in the day) First and second ran the VZ-R II's and the next three ran Mega ZX's. At the end of the 30 min main, it came off of the track at 222 F. Not bad. I pulled the plug after burning off the fuel, in order to give it some After Run Oil, and it looked GOOD. Also, I should tell you to run your own fuel tank run time. My pit man and I were really surprised on how much fuel this little engine makes. Your times may differ due to tuning and conditions and I will not let out my run times in the case some of my local friends peek at this thread. You will like what you find and so will your pit man because you will be able to work him less than the other guys' pitman.
Have fun and let us know about your thoughts on this power plant.
