550 bb track results!

Finally got the 550 cube 440-1 headed, alky injected motor down the track.
Last sat and sunday Brainerd intl in minnesota had a special event for MSRA(MINNESOTA STREET ROD ASSOCIATION) members.
The first pass was off idle, went 1.276 60 ft, 8.888 in 1/4 at 150.5 mph. 2530 DA.
The second run it spun the tires but the vack half of the run was the same. Third pass it slowed a little after a 1.274 60 ft due to geting out of shape slightly. I was told i was dripping something on both passes so i spent the evening under the car checking it out.
SUNDAY!SUNDAY!
8.854 at 154 32 mph! 60 ft was 1.275
I ran the car on sunday without an aircleaner or hood, just the scoop and its' base so the weight dropped to 3012 . the DA was 2500 on my Raceair Pro, web site Online Airdensity said 3100. But a couple of guys said go by my Raceair. I have no real evidance to say why the car gained 3.8 mph, just the lack of a hood and aircleaner. The aircleaner only showed a 4 or 5 hp loss on the dyno.
I am done racing with a hood though! Ten less pain in the arse dzus buttons to mess with to do anything under the hood!
