1964 Dart Grüne Hölle Road Course/Track Day/AutoX Project
8/23/20:
Today was a good Day.
Got to take a nice 2 hour Drive over the mountains to the AutoX site.
Got 6 runs in.. Nothing broke or blew up.
Went off course first 2 laps, Then got it figured out. As the Car got hotter and I pushed harder it slowed down due to the Fuel Starvation on RH. Turns. I believe the Carter BBS 1 Bbl only has one Jet / Metering Rod and it's on the Right side of the Carb... I will look into that this week.
The Carter Designers should have really took this whole AutoX thing into account when they were designing their BBS 1 barrel carb in the 1950's :D
I think I might try putting a baffle in the float bowl and also raising the float a but more too.
The CPR Region of the SCCA did a fantastic job organizing the event and I have 160 or so Photos of the car too!..
So for the car's First official AutoX Event I am happy. It wasn't the slowest thing there and it seemed to handle well for what it is.
Results:
Final Raw Time Results
Some shots..
On the Drive up..
In the paddock:
The Club took great photos!
Here are some:
'Till Next time!
