Well I had a best just about every run today till the last and it was my best MPH 118.3

Right out of the box it ran well. I litt it up to a 1.65 60ft and went through the traps the LONG way at 114 MPH and a 11.59. You will have to see the Video to under stand the LONG way (Edited for my Wifes well being, And my continued racing)

So I rolled back and looked at the loggs and the car was WAY rich. Good thing I ppump 5 gal of 100UL in it! So I added a ton of fuel and got back in line.

This time it went pretty straight...well as straight as those damn tires would go all day I hit I launched and it felt ok. She trucked right on down the track to a 11.52 and picked up 4MPH at 118! Looked the loggs over and she was stil lean so I added some more fuel. Loggs also said she was still ean so I added more fuel again. Some thing was not feeling right with the way the car was leaving so Jim and I played with the Shocks some and figured out I had been told to adjust them wrong

By this time a certain Red "Firebird...OR camaro" had ran a kick *** 11.11 solidifing his second place for the day! And Don is doing every thing he can to try and keep his Cigar

At the tree I bring it up pretty hard on the converter and let it rip! She bangs the 7,000 limiter on the 1-2 shift and upsets the car so it starts swaying back and forth in the groove. It is pulling pretty hard but it is getting kind of bad and at about the 1,000ft i snap off and back on the throttle to keep it from its continued drift to the right. I got through the traps and slowly shut it down. All day there was no way in hell to make the first turn out. We were all going by it at over 100mph!

So I pick up my slip and to my suprise it reads....

60,.....1.593
330....4.695
1/8....7.299
MPH...93.73
1000..9.561
1/4....11.474
MPH...117.83

I am just a littleHAPPY!

So then Don tring to get his Cigar back scours the pitts to find all the stuff to get his Juice running. On his next pass he bumps me out of the #5 spot

I was not really hot on making anouther pass but I dropped the rev limiter and lined up again. At the line I push the converter to hard and it slidd just as the tree started to come down. pretty much wasted the best run of the day with a bad 60ft. It only 60th'd 1.67 but went through the trapps at 11.50@ 118.3..Not good enough for a top five spot

Oh one thing I can say...Everyone else ahead of me on the list is running a power adder and "I" was running N/A...


.....Wonder what will happen with new tires and a 200hp shot :

I was right behind you on your last run, and it was launching pretty nice from what I seen. A 200 shot, yikes, don't you know that nitrous will blow your motor? Congrats on the fastest lt1, and still more to come.
Robert

Poik

Nitrous huh, isn't that cheating?

Glad to see you are happy about your runs, hope to be able to witness the 200 shot

Don't worry Ellis, I have a feeling you'll be in that top 5 before the summer comes around.

Also, PM sent Ellis.

John it was Great seing you and your son today! Kind of like old times...only with out the transmission swaps in the pitts

Let us know before you leave so we can hook up!

I was implying that poik's *** was slower than a freight train or a short bus. Your car is definitely running the number n/a and will hopefully pull a decent 60 once the tires are on. Should turn out to be nice.

I'll be out to shake things up in a few weeks. Some people will be surprised. Enjoy the DA while it lasts.

Nate

BTW that 16.2 time today wasn't in my Camaro.. Just making that clear to everybody!

No worries at all. I took it in the best way man!

Seriously we can't wait to have you come out and play! I got a feeling you will be fast!

and yes the DA rocked today! I am fairly sure even with a worse DA with juice it will kick out a ten

Not without a battle of/with/from/to the nitrous gods, which I happen to know.

I thought you had the transmission out of my car, Ellis. How did you get it up and running 11s already?

And he wasn't a teenager. Damn I'm getting old.

So Ellis, seeing how I'm getting told that TM may be a problem with my low trap speeds, how soon before you get LS2 software? Before I leave in Mar?
