Looked like the Cobra is geared much better. T/A makes the power tho. Good runs!

Nice driving man your car is definitely geared properly for the set-up thats for sure. That T/A could use more gear anyways thats besides the point. I'm not trying to be a dick or anything but you took a hell of a jump. I watched the vid twice and you jumped on the 2nd horn and the T/A hit it a good sec. or longer after you. The vid is clear that yeah the T/A won by 1 to 1 1/s lengths but on an even start I bet it would be closer to 3 which seems more likely for the two cars involved. Either way nice race and vid keep them coming.

Nitrous is awesome. Great torque and an insane power curve.

Considering I got my old nitrous kit for $200, I'd say it was money well spent for an extra 100rwhp on my TA
