Seeing LC tanks are rare nowadays, Here is some trade secret info for you... I worked part time at Noosa Motorcycles about 10 years ago and the owner there was a boat freak, and the marine boys have the rusty tank thing well sorted.... It works 300% better than POR and other tank kits :lol: Descale ...

Some interesting pics for you: Yamaha production line Thats a YD2 pressed steel frame, and a YDS2 or 3...the best Induction roar you ever heard. circa 1963 http://i1107.photobucket.com/albums/h396/gravmax88/Yamaha250line1963.jpg Yamaha 1963 Hi tech Dyno......No OHS to worry about back then http://i1...

All joking aside, the track must be giving the data out during the day, tuning for a top fueller at 2:00pm at 28C compared to 8pm at 18C on the same day with humidity changes from 80% down to 45% at the same time.....which would be a perfectly normal change each and every day, requires accurate data...

The track will normally show (as a altitude reference) the density at the time.

At Willowbank, all time slips have this printed with your time readout.

Graham

Well I suppose we are a bit more advanced this side of the border

ran the same time with same top speed (head scratch)

what was the air altitude (Relative Air Density) both days.....If the base has changed, the same time/speed as last time may actually mean you may have a lot more (or less) power than last time.

Accurate records = Accurate conclusions

And then of course the "polariser"

Perhaps they thought the only way they could get a holden to feel like a luxury car was to align all the karma in the one direction......

Graham

Well folks you wanted some nostalgia, so here it comes....don't laugh too much... :oops: The year, 1964, I was 15 and here I am pleased as punch with myself with my first racing vehicle....and of course it was a two stroke..... A Villiers 197cc 6E engine that was made circa 1952-1955 http://i1107.ph...

Ok Jeram, you got me........ :roll: That device reminds me soooooooo much of an almost identical product, advertised mostly the same way that has been around for many many years, as long as spark ignition took over from hot tube ignition.....and no I not that old.....yet! 100 years ago one of the th...

yep I guess we have got off topic a bit..... :roll: The egg dyno sort of evolved from a search for a method to accurately measure modifications. It started by trying to gauge where for example the distance travelled to reach a particular speed was obtained. In Drag racing the speed obtained at the e...

yep, that,s me...... :oops: If you ever get a chance to see the doco that was made in 1968 that they based the Fastest Indian movie on, (it came in a 2 Cd set with the Movie) You will see Bert running his Velo sprinter when it broke the barrel flange off during a sprint meeting in Southland...... in...
