Default Black Pearl win ;)

The Black Pearl took me trialing again yesterday
An awesome day again , and this time we won first in class
Scored 2nd overall in RTV which I'm well chuffed with.Could easily have won it if I could just brake the back end more effectively . I feel a mod coming on

Fitted a 5 litre oil catch can just to be safe
Some of those canes are blinking close together, mirrors in

Full flex on full power It's steeper than it looks up there too

Truely hooked now

Strangely
I fitted an old fire extinguisher as a catch can in the engine bay to deal with the old BBV return pipe to sump. Then fitted a 5litre fuel can on passenger footwell as catch can for the rocker breather. The sump vent produced nothing, but the rocker vent was fuming away all day and did produce an amount of liquid oil. Engine was running sweet and with LPG on I got a peak of 520 degrees on the EGT . That drops really quick as soon as the load is off .
Who knows

your engine is fine, you just need to sort out breathing problems, Rick
