You are rich at part throttle; in the second video I can hear it at around 48-50 seconds before you drop the hammer. You had the same issue last summer when it was hot, but not in the fall when it was cooler. ;)

I found trash in the carbs right after that race in Memphis when it was acting up. I cleaned them up and had no more issues until May of this year.

I added another YouTube video. It's of my first qualifying pass on the 4.60 index class dragbike. Kawasaki,not a SOHC. Just search under Loney motorsports.

The motor sounds nice and crispy at "idle" and WFO, but sounds soggy when at part throttle before launch. Last November when it was cooler, it wasn't as bad, but I can still hear the difference. You might want to try lowering the needle a notch or two.

Bill, I replace one before we left the track sunday. It was a little bald around the edges but holding air well.
