SpeedWeek @ Blue Lake is back!

[Jeffmaturo]

Lake is beautiful.........Big thanks to Glenn Quarles, had a very nice time. Good hotel was the Marriott off of Exit 16.

Good luck to Mic and Jay, and everyone that makes the trip for Time Trials.

Nice shot! Jeff, are you shooting footage for your show?

Hi Joey,

I did not get a chance, it was a VERY short trip. I have a new born at home and was lucky just to get away for a day.....hope to see you soon!

 

[RaceMechaniX]

Good luck fellas, perhaps next year Brian, Darin and I can get a plan together to join you guys.

Glenn,

That is AWESOME !!!

The MTJ Nova-12 is pulling 35,114 RPM fully loaded.

See if that new pipe can pull that propeller .250" shorter?

UNBELIEVEABLE ACCOMPLISHMENT, that is fast for any

size motor let alone a 12 motor?

NICE JOB Glenn,

Mark Sholund

 

[Glenn Quarles]

Ok it is official, MTJ knows how to build twin hydros!!! More details to follow...

How did u come up with that one

 

[shoboat]

Martin,

Revised the math after talking with Jim today.

Just do the math, or go to my web site and plug in the numbers.

It was pretty easy, enter the figures and hit the calculate button.

35,114 is going 94.07 MPH

36,000 would be 96.4 MPH

37,000 would be 99.1 MPH

Believe it or not we lose a lot of RPM once the engine is loaded

with the propeller load. I could be off +/- 2% but testing that propeller

on one of my very light 12- Hydros it is calculating out to be 18%.

You have to remember you cannot compare a higher raked propeller to a

much lower raked propeller, the efficiency is much different. I have a friend

making up a test tank and that should reveal the right number. There is a

test tank at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan that could test

the efficiency of these propellers also. Anyone go to U of M that could get us

some lab time?

Awesome engine, pipe, and propeller combination, Nice Work!!!

And how do you know the slippage

 

[Terry Keeley]

And how do you know the slippage

lol! Here we go again...

 

[mtruex]

Lol

Glenn,

IMPRESSIVE !!!

I thought the 12 record book would be set down their in the next 7 days?

I hope you can get it backed up in the morning tomorrow. You must have

those New Game Changers from ABC Propeller hooking it up?

Mito-12? Or Virtus-12?

Thanks For The Report,

Mark Sholund

Thanks Mark! Yes the new ABC 1523 is working great! And I have a new pipe I built that is working much better than any I have done before. I am using one of the normal hotrod Nova's .

Glenn,

Glad to hear the Novas are running well. I hope everyone has a great time and good weather.

Brand new twin 45 I built the past 3 weeks. First day on the water today, last run before dark ran this 17.098 2 lap time. Beat Stu's record But not by enough ! Hopefully get a few more runs tomorrow but the wind looks bad again , Glenn said it was never rough at blue lake

 

[Ian Inverarity]

Nice work there!

 

[Andy Greene]

I hear somebody got up pretty early this am and knocked it down to 16.854

NICE JOB

Is this the same JAE 45 Twin from the Zipp Kit site?

 

[ABC PROPS]
