I just bought my first rigger from Steve Murphy in McLean, VA. It is a Roadrunner 60 with a Picco 67.
Up to now I have been running modified Miss Vegas's (Stock OS 18, Modified OS 18, and OS 18 TZ) and have some good luck out here in the west (TX, OK, KS) with several IMPBA trophies but the fastest MOD is right at 45mph.
I am working on a Sport Hydro 20 with a CMB Valvola which should be a little faster BUT I can tell you I am just a little intimidated by this MUCH faster rigger. I've watched them run at several races and can't wait but would like suggestions on how to safely get started.
- Have someone check it out first?
- Have an experienced rigger driver run it first?
- Run it sloppy rich?
- Limit the throttle to 1/2 or 3/4 (I use a programmable Airtronics M8)?
- ??
I do know enough to run on the far outside when I get to the point of racing with others BUT what about before then?
I feel a little like when I first slipped behind the wheel of a powerful sports car!
