Norwalk Mo-Power Event - Day 3

[Donald Gallimore <dongallimore@xxxxxxx>]

Well, disappointing day performance and elimination wise.  Beautiful weather 
today, even better than yesterday.  Made up for the dismal weather on Friday.

I ran two rounds in eliminations.  I dialed in based on yesterday's performance 
at 12.33. The other car red lighted in first round. In both rounds my ETs fell 
off over a 1/2 second from yesterday. I lost a tenth in the 60 foot and that 
continued to grow with each incremental measurement down the strip. (330', 660', 
1000' and 1320').  Yesterday I ran 1.70 sixty foots and 12.34 quarter at over 
108 MPH.  Today I ran 1.80 & 1.83 sixty foots, 12.88 and 13.03 quarter miles at 
around 103 MPH.  Usually MPH loss means horsepower loss but if the 
tranny/converter is going, can't get the HP to the track, I'd think, and would 
show up as what happened to me today.

I suspect a tranny or converter going on me. But not ruling out engine issues.  
Going to run test on the engine plus check the tranny fluid for odor or metal 
particles.
