allright folks got one run in, and then no joy b/c of no helmet or jacket and rain.. So I spun 11.5 slicks off the line, and still managed to run decent. the work truck has more in it. I need to work on Hooking off the line, maybe lower the pressure in my slicks and it was running pig rich the whole 1/4 (10.0)
R/T .034
60' 1.82
330' 5.18
1/8 8.00
1/8 87.10
1000' 10.47
1/4 12.56
1/4 107.71
nice. :thumb:
Still checking on the subtitle renaming.
Thank you!!Quote:

I dont want the fuel pressure any higher, it is already running rich on the shot. Probably b/c my fuel pressure is always around 65-68..Quote:

To be honest I dont remember, whatever NOS recommended for the 100 shot. I did not have time to tune the afr before I got to the track, and once there was not alowed to run again. Ill get it dialed in next time!Quote:

Didn't it used to be 13.99 or quicker for a helmet? I know the rules have changed some in the past few years as new vehicles with safety features have gotten a lot quicker.
8.59 or faster on the 1/8th at NHRA tracks.
Isn't that about the same? Not sure myself but I guess I could look up a conversion.
x 1.57
Thanks. What about MPH conversion....LOL

I didn't make it lance, kids were comming in from summer vacation hahaa, but the track rained out at 8:30
damn 10.0...drop 3-4 pill sizes, you should at a .28 i think so go down to a .25 and see what it does...really i would just go to a 57 on the nitrous and a .30-.32 on the fuel
Damn...just now getting around to this thread...
Congrats B! Those are some badass times--for it being the first and only time you ran on Friday night. Get your sh!t figured out and dialed in correctly, and you will be in the 7's in the 1/8th and low 12's in the 1/4. Good job buddy! :thumb:
