Haven't made it to the track since my mods. Having some carb issues now. My QF 1050 runs very rich at cruise and i can't seem to figure it out. I'll post updates hopefully soon.

Made it to the track today. Made some small gains on my 60 foot. Went 9.94 at 135.7 with a 1.44 60 foot. I'm very happy because i've been trying to break into the nines for a long time! I found the adjustable rear shocks wanted to be alot stiffer than what i thought. 1-9 with 1 being soft I am on 7. Seems to work the best. Also my motor wants 40 degrees of timing to make the most power.

That's great! You have a little more in that 60'. Keep at it!

Hey Ed, i read through this thread again and see you are running the hoosier 29 x 10. Does that fit on an 8 inch rim in the stock wheel well?

I'm sure it will fit a 10" rim but it would not be optimal. Its a tight fit in my wheel well and my frame is notched to the seam.
