Into the 10s Went to the track yesterday, screwed up and brought a nearly empty bottle with me. First time on slicks, and first time spraying at the track. It was a hot day, 100% sun, 90+ degrees. Norwalk Raceway park. DA was 3339 at time of the run.
I dumped the clutch around 4k rpm, it hooked pretty well. N2O pressure was just under 1000 at start of run, was down to 800 by the end, nothing left at the end of the run, still a huge pickup from N/A. Very excited to go back on cooler days with a full bottle or 2 and get some more seat time. Would like to see a 10.5 or better.

Its probably around 3400 without me in it. 3620ish race weight. 150 shot. After going to Woodward for the dream cruise I will get it back out with a full bottle and a much cooler night.

Sounds like plan. You hit Woodward the day of the cruise? We usually go a night or 2 before...much better...actually can cruise instead of just sit in a big *** traffic jam lol

About 30+ of us from the Cleveland area are heading up between Wednesday and Thursday. Be my third year in a row now. Always a blast, found some street action last year with some locals.

Doesn't have the power for the 28s to get a good launch without the nitrous. It turned 3 in a row of 11.9 @ 117 - 118 in that weather. I think it probably has a 11.5 ish in better weather, or if I swapped 26" tires back on it would be even better, but I set the car up for nitrous as much as I could.

No video. Next track rental I will be more prepared. 2 full bottles and a gopro or 2. This bottle was so empty, the shop thought I opened it and let it fully empty before bringing it in for the fill. Excited to see how low it can get into the 10s on a full bottle.

I am really glad to see a 12 bolt holding in a ten second six speed car. I will probably not get to finish mine up until winter due to my long list of other projects but I hope to get in the tens as well. Mine will appear, sound and drive as stock though.

Its a noisy bitch (going on 11 years of use now), but its never had a hiccup. Autocross, multiple trips of clutch dumps at the strip. If I didn't get a smoking deal on it used, I would have gone with a Fab 9. If it ever breaks that is exactly what I will get.
