Great day at the track today. High humidity and Barometric pressure was dropping like a stone. Sweating just sitting in my car and it was only 69 degrees,

So after reading the plugs and checking the readings on all 8 cylinders, would you believe #1 wants a 101 holley jet which equates to a 130 in a BLP jet (orifice size) and my number #6 wants a #86 jet and #8 want s a#85 jet.
 
wheels up, with a 1.26 on the back tires.
5.48 in the 1/8th and 8.69 @155.12
Running C14 and only 32 degrees of timing. Should be 35 degrees.

1 more NENDRA Race next week then down South to Cecil with a few of the guys for some of that sea level air.
 
How do yall check your plugs ar the end of a run? I'm running 727 reverse manual valve body. Don't think it's a good idea to just cut the ignition off in 3rd gear doing 100mph?

Here is a way to do it:
Once on the return road pull off to a safe area and shut off engine ASAP.
Pull a plug (or 2) for inspection.
Best way to do if you dont have a clean neutral shifter.
