[Fot] AMBRO UPDATE

[n197tr4 at cs.com]

I wasnt going to say.

But since you asked...it was 1847#

A concerted effort might have yielded 1700# without spending any extra money.

Spending a lot of money might have yielded 1650#

Just a guess........

How fast do you want to go?....how much do you want to spend?

I suspect that the AMBRO will do what I need it to.

This engine likely could use a Larry Young Cam and another engine for the
street.

Grandson Brendan took me to dinner in it twice while at Blackhawk Farms. How
cool is that?

I think he wants to go to drivers school. Alexander Racing is going to sign
him to a lifetime contract.

So, what is the total weight?  I've heard they are not much lighter than a TR3
or TR4. - Larry

Even though I didnt enter the Ambro, I did take it to Blackhawk Farms.
It now has been teched and has a VSCDA LOGBOOK.
Weight check showed a 49% front and 51% rear bias w/out driver.
It seems to have good manners at TOURING SPEEDS.
As you can tell, I am in no hurry to run it in anger.
Might run it at Heartland Park...at least thats the plan.
