Duckndive Posted August 18, 2017 Author Posted August 18, 2017 Well Bulldog 2017 now over ...no prize this year....But New PB speed 158mph.... and found that Boost Gauge's are just like Tacho's... they go all the way round . 4 Quote
jonny1bump Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Nice improvement Clive 158 mph no mean feat well done. I have herd rumblings may be bull dog next year. Was it good this year in general. You going hot rod drags. You got red line set at 10500 in reality then, with how Suzuki tacho read high, for road machine too, best not to rev it more. Quote

Its geared tall TBH....hit 4th at 1000ft ..And roll it off steady at Long Marston let engine and box do the work slowing down always enjoy the Bulldog....will wait and see what they say for 2018.....Yes we should be at Hot Rod Drags ..... I tend to punch 2nd & 3rd early and late on 4th..... Quote
jonny1bump Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Is it spinning up Clive so you punching early in the lower gears. As your geared tall really need to let it rev less gear changes too may save a tenth or so. Quote

TBH a better tyre would help .."easy fix"....It span the 1/4 on the last run I know as It reached 5th......LoL no Its a bit lively until it settles down in 3rd then I struggle to see the tacho with me head down .. I'm going to sort the tyre and play with the clutch "static pressure" ..then maybe change gearing I would like more springs in the clutch to make it more tuneable on the static...TBH...... and Suzuki plates have gone crap of late I think they are using a different material as they are bone dry after 2 runs.....

jonny1bump Posted August 27, 2017 Posted August 27, 2017 Clive remember on the stocker we do clutch every run, you may now be at this level with your set up that is starting to warrant this. Quote
Brad Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Have you been running it on the road too? Everyone raves about the drivability of blow through set ups, how do you find a draw through? They defiantly look cooler! Quote

I,ve not had this one on the road ..but I used my old EFE draw Thru on the road a lot....Similar Set up turbo wise motor but with a HSR 42 Carb.... No problem on road and sounds sooo much better than a Blow Thru 3 Quote
Duckndive Posted February 17, 2018 Author Posted February 17, 2018 Not done a lot over the winter only work has consisted of replacing the leaking rear calliper for a non leaking version from Rick .. And I guess its time to replace the grotty doe's slip tyre as well Now its just a matter of waiting on the Slippy thing from Mr Wing to go in here 3 Quote

Duckndive Posted June 10, 2018 Author Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) Still works.............. Run 1 60ft took longer than Sammys Record 1/4.. ..due to almighty bog then wheel spin.... Run 2 Drop tyre pressure...Better but still spun then carb fell off some ware past 1/2 track Opps Run 3 Drop Tyre even more better "no cigar" 60ft but motor dead at 1000ft ..but 9.5 will do ..

Gixer1460 Posted September 12, 2018 Posted September 12, 2018 Attractive..................they won't understand - you best explain! LOL After all these years, you would have thought someone would have come up with a air switch that doesn't break every 5 minutes - the MRE ones are shite! Quote
