Cool Low 9 Second Nitrous Street Cruiser

Had a little fun at my local 1/8 mile track. I had to tone down the launch a bit as the track was a bit dirty and my 275s were at the end of their life, but was still able to run in the 5s:


All the popping, cracking and tire chirping is coming from the import in the other lane.

Went down to Bradenton Motorsports today. A lot of guys were spinning, but I was able to dead hook on two passes. I still had more tuning that I wanted to do, but my laptop gave up the ghost. Here is a timeslip from today:

I have not made any non nitrous passes since last year. I am into the nitrous right now. The oft quoted 2 degees per 50 HP has been holding very true with this combo. That is pretty much how it goes the fastest.

Every hit without nitrous is a wasted pass.

I drive the car on the street several times a week, but I do not do any type of racing on the street. I did go to a no-prep street style race at a local drag strip. That was fun and challenging. But the guy who took me out crashed at 130 MPH the very next round, so I won't be doing that anymore either.

Here is a cool video gif of the car taken from MotorMania TV at Lights Out 8:



That was a 5.87 with a 1.29 60'. Felt great!
