My, how time flies...

Pretty soon, it will be time to race again.

And we go over the peices and parts from our broken engine, and look at putting together our new engine, we continue to wonder how we ever ran as well as we did before.

From valve seats that weren't seating, losing compression... And not from just one valve either, but from quite a few of them......

....to fuel injectors that were not doing their job of properly injecting the fuel..

Previously, we ran an awful lot of races, and ran very fast for many of them. But then we started losing power. But it wasn't until we ran our backup engine, that we began to suspect that the killermotor had issues.  How else can we account for a plain vanilla engine running as well as it did, when our killer motor wasn't much faster.

But now, we know why the Killer motor was down on power.. And that knowledge is going into the new killer motor.

So, by the time Indy rolls around, our new killer motor should be back together, and wrung out a couple of times at a local track.

So look out Indy! New Hemi Racing is coming to a track near you. And we are again ready to race.
