7.40 Nitrous LS stock suspension
For years everyone has always been after to me to run my nitrous car thru the 1/4 and I had never done it. I had coasted to a 7.82 two years ago in testing(which was the s/s ls nitrous record) but had never held it past the 1/8 until today...
Turns out I can't make it all the way thru with out running out of gear but I made it right past the 1000' and she was begging for mercy so I had to lift. Still interesting either way just to see what the car would do if I just held my foot down a little longer.

Thanks Thadd!
That was Bobby in the left lane. The big block ran a 4.77 yesterday also with baby jets.
Lower control arm are in factory holes and its a 10 year old spohn tq arm on the car. Coil springs and shocks are still in factory location. Its more stock than most any cars you see.

No 1/4 mile racing for me plus I don't think I can take the crowd at that race.
I would just raise the limiter and see how far it could make it before parts came out.
Thanks Dave!
