I see no reason to ever go back... buttload of jets and needles available at 
your nearest Harley Davidson shop, and the GT-6+ was BARKING this weekend.... I 
turned 2:08's in the 2.90 mile road circuit at Texas Motor Speedway, my fastest 
times ever... I was leading the DP cars except for the Lotus Super 7 which was 
turning 2:00's... I even kept pace with a few of the slower CP Porsche 911's... 
unbelievable weekend. My BEST EVER!....    makes up for all those lonely nights 
wrenching and bitching in my garage...

So how do you like those mikuni's now ?
I'm curious though about modifying the jets, I haven't had to do that.

Thanks to Gregg Rodgers @ Pinnacle Autosports we got the GT-6+ dialed in on the 
dyno. My car was the 1st mule to run in his new shop at Eagles Canyon this week. 

What started out a dismal 79 h.p. was soon dialed in with modifying the jets and 

the timing with the Mukini carb's set up...my brand new re-built harmonic 
balancer from Damper Doctor was at least 11 degrees off...lovely....  by early 
morning though we had 112 hp @ 6000 rpm ... AND getting an alignment was way 
over due as well....   should be ready for the weekend at Texas World as I'm 
'fixin' to go to WalMart for groceries... this is my fun weekend before the 
MITTY...
