Took my Beetle to the track
I entered an 1/8 mile class, but got one 1/4 mile pass. 15.46 at 86 and a 9.67 in the 1/8th. Best 60’ 2.09. It’s spins a lot. Lost first round. Had fun and nothing broke. The new trailer all worked out great.- 410 John

Rough and shaking 350 after changing spark plugs
The NGK’s should work in a GM product. I use them in my Bug. As mentioned above, check them wires over.- 410 John

Enclosed trailer, sort of a vehicle
It’s a 1600 with a small CB cam and a single 40 dellorto. The turbo is a Ko4. It’s running pretty good. Low speed, I have so transition dead spots. Trying to work them out.- 410 John

Welcome from Poland!
Those 350 tbi engines run good. But, are not power houses in stock form. Please don’t base your judgement of American muscle on it. Lol.- 410 John

Enclosed trailer, sort of a vehicle
I’m so short on time. Because of work, vacation, more work, then the event I want to use the trailer for. I got the tracks partially installed last night and going to try to finish everything up tonight. I’m using what I got and hopefully all the tie downs are good lengths to deal with. Small...- 410 John

Enclosed trailer, sort of a vehicle
Any input on e-track tie downs? I bought some stuff the last I may return. I want to make this as easy as possible, strapping the bug down. It’s the whole horizontal and vertical e-track that’s confusing me.- 410 John

I have to install some tie down points. Picked up 4 short floor tracks from HF. Just got a few hours ago. Kinda...- 410 John

Donkey. Dirt track race car build.
Most of the guys are probably running the metric chassis. There’s a dirt guy by me that mentioned about using a Camaro center link. I mentioned it to the factory stock guy I know and he said they sell a center link that corrects the geometry. I don’t know. Just bench racing. Your car is same as...- 410 John
