valin said:Well I'm back, and have some work to do. The initial warmup 1/2 pass went fine.....ran it up to 120 mph or so just to check wash and temps....all ok. We rolled into it pretty slow, had some slight belt slippage on the bottom, but nothing too drastic, and it peaked in the mid 130's for hp, which was pretty decent to start with. Then, all hell broke loose, and by hell, I mean the track. On the second pass, at 137 mph the track decided it was outta there, and completely grenaded, leaving it's mark of destruction on my tunnel, bulkhead, and my in-tunnel brake setup. I am quite thankful that I was running a track with no pics or chisels in it, as that would have probably destroyed my chassis. Needless to say, I have some straightening to do.
No worries, things like this happen. I will be heading back on the track dyno again next week.
that really sucks. see, w/snowmobiling, its always something. that's why i wouldn't mind getting outta the sport and put more time and money into my banshee. sorry to hear about that valin. hopefully you'll have it fixed soon enough.
oh yeah, good thing no studs, cause that would have been real havoc.
