John he has done the same for me too.
I know there are a lot of ways to skin a cat and even more ways to make a car go down the track but Ned has helped me save a ton of money trying to figure out how to apply the power to the track. My car with the 540 BBC ran 5.40s in the heat and 5.20s in cool weather. It took awhile but the same power combination at about the same weight ended up running 4.80s in the heat. There were equipment changes along the way but basically the same power. I would encourage anyone struggling with their chassis to have Ned come to a test session and watch your car. He will form an opinion of what it is doing and make suggestions for you to try. He can adjust your car for you at his shop or you can do your own adjustments and learn from it. JMO

thanks John and Mark
it is a small chassis tuning window when your motor makes 1600+ hp.
sometimes it takes a different setting in the chassis than what you would think to make it go down the track and be happy about it.
I am always willing to help racers with some advice or make the adjustments for them to get their car
to go straight because it is safer for everybody.

hey john
it looks like Todd got his Camaro to run a 5.02 at the last race too. I think a
few more adjustments and he will be in the 4.90's

Todd went 4.93 at lyons this weekend with the new changes we talked about too  I think it might go 4.80's in cool air tooooo. sometimes you just have to try things you do not understand because the 4.80 chassis set up is so different than the 5.0's to 5.20 's set up. one step at a time Todd and you will get there ... |
