Back on Track
 
Literally!
Last weekend we got the Nova back to the track. It went 10.59 on the first pass, second pass was a 10.57. It would have gone a 10.52 but I was bracket racing and had to hit the brakes! So it was a promising first day.
We went back out today put some more timing in it went 10.48 on the first pass. Did some tuning all day and the slips look like this:
1-10.482
2-10.446
3-10.433
4-10.431
5-10.417
6-10.401
7-10.381
8-10.366
Still a little more jetting to be done but we had a problem with our wideband.
My best last year was a 10.34 so we are right there, next week the program will run longer, so I will be able to make a pass at night and try to lower that number even more.

Also got a new best in the 1/8-104.15 mph
