I don't think that Michael posted yet but he ran a new nitrous best time for his car... I believe it was 8.43@163mph at the GLD True Street race yesterday. Let's here some details!!! He has a Trans Am.

Thanks john, we made it to the semi finals and i red lighted to bob curgen.After figuring out are missfire problem we slowy steped on it.Are first pass with no missfire problem was a 8.95 lifting in the big so we could see were the tune up was, second pass 8.57 and are third pass was a 8.43 at 163.We are on still a pretty moderate tune, we had a 31 pill in the DP and i belive that is only a 275 shot.We also have to work on the suspenion to get are 60ft better were only going 1.30 so we need to work on that a bit.

Tuff your the man, this year for sure, congrats. You have just edged out Guess who and his dry shot for the #3 all time fastest. Sounds as if once you get more radical with the tune you may see low 8's or even high 7's, what do you think will be your cap? Get that run posted on the current n2ofast list and the all time Fast List, and I will get it hosted immediately.

We wouldn't have built this setup if we didn't think it would run in the.7'sThis is a max effort nitrous motor and the more you spray the more happy it becomes.Also the LSX six bolt stuff is the best money spent.

Yeah his car is 25.5 and he's running an LSX iron block. He was over at my house rewiring my BS3 that I lent him a while back. How long it take you and Neil to get back like 2 hours?

We ran a 31 in the DP to run are 8.43 and if we step on it in the 1/8 the et would lower.To answer your question about what pill size we think a 42 should get the job done.
