Got my 8 sec pass! 8.97 @ 151.05 mph Its been a long time in the making! Was not expecting to hit that number last night. The goal was just to dial in the car and make sure everything works. Turns out....it works fine. Not sure if I even want to attemp the 2nd stage at this point.
60 ft 1.37
1/8th 5.76
mph 121.99
1/4 8.97
mph 151.05
I will post the time slip when I have a chance to scan it.
Want to thank Nitro Dave and Nitrous Outlet, Moe Bailey, Charles Bourassa, Tony Mamo, Madman, Kyle, my wife, and the rest of the crew for all your help!

Things I need to fix:
The stall converter is flashing to only 3100 on the brake. It is supposed to be a 4000 stall. Gonna have to loosen it up a little. Car was lazy out of the hole.
My alternator belt flew off a couple of passes before the 8.97. I was running only on battery power. I need to see why the belt flew off. Maybe alignment problem.
My IAT temps were 136*. Right now I am running just an open 4 barrel throttle body with no hat or bonnet or any type of cold air pipe. It was sucking in some serious hot air. Need to fab up something to help that.
Overall I can't complain. Car performed better than expected.
I am ready for the shootout!
