Today at Cadwell I was in the holding area, I noticed the idle revs were down from normal. Pulled the vert plug lead and the engine stopped. On part throttle it was running on 2 but not quite as crisp as it usually is.

Compression test revealed front pot 25psi down on the rear pot. So I took the head and barrel off, signs were running very weak. Then I found a large split in the carb rubber right under the Jubilee clip.

Better to find on a TD than waste a race weekend tho'.

Met a lot of faces today for the first time, good banter with everyone.
