Awesome, I'm taking my SS4k out for the first time tomorrow night. Hoping it will do well in the 60 and the traps.

I have had a ton of different combos N/A and nitrous. With a couple different motor combos. For awhile I installed wingnuts on the trans bolts because I had it out so often.

Happy with the product.

What's your launching technique? Are you loading up the verter or just flashing the verter?

The harder I load the convertor the harder it leaves. All my Yank convertors work this way.

On the 1.371 60ft I stalled it to about 2700
Made another pass stalled to 3100 did a bigger wheelie landed at the 60ft mark 60ft showed 1.382 I ran 10.50 vs 10.52 on 1.371 same mph on both passes.

I think this will go 1.35 on motor.
With good weather and more seat time.
