OMG - 9.20 sec last meeting 20.9 secs this meeting! Maybe deciding to wear Red, White & Blue was a bad omen. Fitted tank, fuel filter & front end parts on Sat morn and tried a new set up recommended by Good Vibes. Off we went proud in our Jubilee colours for our 1st run of the weekend - 16 seconds!!! Ok, lets put the set up back to what we know! No time for a 2nd run so we will wait for Sunday.
Sun morn we were ready to roll for 10am - 20 seconds - WTF! Lots of head scratching was going on and not many ideas flowing as to the problem. 3rd run was worse & the 4th no better. Mark noticed that the fuel shut off lever had moved so a check was made back in the pits and this seemed to be the issue. This was confirmed in Martin Chesworth's set of photos showing the position of the cable from the burnout to the launch - cheers Martin. Sadly rain stopped the team trying out what they hoped was the answer so they will have to wait to test their theory until the Nostalgia Nationals, BallBreaker's 2nd birthday!
