From what I've read, one can never make decent power running closed loop... but again only what I've read
I must have done something wrong on Dislex's and Qwerty's cars then as they both run full time closed loop.

I would still like someone to check out your block when you swap them around. Want to see if any wear and tear is not distributed equally due to water/meth, also want to see if there's rust.
No problems, we will get to that stage. But there are already enough evidence available on this issue(via the net). Lately I am only using water(low budget for methanol) and of course then the nozzle is to big for water only. But we will be back on par soon. Just interim situation

Also thought this ladder has died a bit, maybe when their cars are fixed (and that includes you vlade) they will start it up again.

Since we are all so aggressive I thought this is the right time to get this thread/ladder going again.

In my memory I recall challenging Phinx and Draco [both of you guys didn't accept due to mechanical issues]. Chemcool had a taste of the BB turbo and also didn't want to race me. So doesn't that mean I'm on the top by default? Otherwise whose cars are running & willing?! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
