I finally met Nuke 'em yesterday. We got to ride most of the day. He is a great guy, he has a really fast 350. It seems like everytime I would lead, we would wind up on the 'whoops', sorry about that.

Gary heped me witht the timing on the Drak, can you believe it was set at about 20 degrees advanced, no wonder I melted the last Engine. I have continued to have a stubborn miss/cutting out, so this morning I disconnected the rising rate fuel pressure regulator, and presto, the miss is gone. At least I hope it is gone, and not just hiding for the time being.

File comment: Of the whole "fleet", the only thing that was not hauled in my trailer, was the neighbor's quad, and Nuke 'em's 350 Ody.

Sounds like it was a good trip I am glad to see you learned a little more about your
Engine and set up.

Any idea what the curb weight is on the new trailer?

It is supposed to be 3025 lbs, made by Featherlite, all aluminum except the floor and the axles. We call it the bunk house, as both my neighbors and kids slept in it when we went riding. I am planning on putting some windows in it, for light and ventilation.

No, same motorhome, just didn't get far enough away to get both in the picture. The whole rig is now about 53 or 54 feet long, maybe I shoulda just gotten a semi.

Thanks again to Jerry and his family to feed me and show me around. I had a great time. I will be back there very soon. If you want me to haul anything back for Lightspeed, I am leaving for St. Louis around the 4th of Aug. How do I post several pics?
