This is the first 2 laps of my Saturday race, shortly after the flood waters receded.Pocono Race Video
The clip is about 4 1/2 minutes at high res.

very cool. 3 914's on the track? way too cool

AWE Chris, Now you made me real homesick I used to live very close to long pond/broadheadsville area but I will be going back to visit family and friends soon AL

Fantastic video!!! I found myself jammin' my right foot on the floor

I don't know, I was working my left foot pretty hard watching those puddles !

great job Chris.

It looks like either you or your car drives better than the other teeners, but they had more power on the straight.
Did you use almost all the oval? Man, seemed like you were on it forever.

i saw that too. didnt want to rub it in

I had a crowd around my desk watching it. AWSOME!!

Next to Mike Z's Avatar's my crew couldnt be happier.

The yellow car is a 2 liter 6, EP car & should be faster than me and the blue car. That's Steve Limbert.
Les Handly, the blue car driver is at least 10 years older than me and been racing that much longer than me as well. He's one of my benchmarks, & has a bit more engine than I have, but I don't think 30 hp. Of course that's not his "Runoffs motor", and that is mine.
The black car was FP fast qualifier that weekend, and started 4th at last years SCCA Runoffs, so I was very excited to be ahead of him for more than a lap.

I'd like to think I'm a better driver, and my car's handling is still improving little by little.
That track configuration is flat out (except for entering the bowl ) for more than a mile and a half, 2/3rds of the full oval.
Starting from second gear at 5500 rpm (45mph) and shifting around 6500rpm, I saw at least 6800 in fifth on more than one occasion, which is above 120mph with my gearing.
I'm impressed with what I'm getting with a Web 86a cam!

Chris is doing way more with way less engine than these other guysand still keeping up!

The 86A is a great cam for this, it simply runs out of steam at 7K though. I have a cam with about 20 thou more lift and 20 degrees more exhaust duration that will really bring it to life...

Thats for next season, right Chris??

BTW, Chris- Alpine (Alfred) thinks your car is slow!

If you were thinking that Jake built my engine, you were mistaken again. Too date I have built all my own race engines.
Next season I should be working with MassIVe horsepower though.

Here is the #78's -4

Funny that he runs those tall stacks that everyone told me I should take off my car,

Paul

WTF is the fat, long clear hose? puke bottle?

twas my guess

Yep, Chris has done a really good job of assembling his own engines....Very impressive for sure

Next year we'll show #78 just why he needs to get rid of those tall stacks!!

BUT maybe he has taller gearing and a combo that needs the extra air charge and velocity. In my way of building engines they just don't work....Everytime we have tested them the engine lost power in the upper revs and since these guys are worthless below 5K RPM all the rev you can get is the key!

Next season we'll have 3 F productions and an E production on the tracks across the country as well as 4 more dedicated guys in HSR..... Heck Chris might find himself paired up with another MassIVe engine in the run offs next year and that will be cool competition considering the engines are so closely built.

Just given' ya some crap about the stacks, Jake

Paul

Hey cool! Steve rebuilt my -6 and is putting together my 914.

Gary's 914

Soon, now. Very Soon...

Boy. Hope you two aren't mortal enemies..

sweet video.. your 4 sounds mean!

Nah, Steve's ok!
I do better work than him though, and I'm a better driver.

The .wmv audio doesn't do it justice. It sounds way better live!
Tangerine Super Header with Stage I silencer, baby!
