Default First nitrous passes

Finally sprayed it last night, the track was slick so I never got a clean pass but on the 150 it went a 1.40 and a 1.43 60 and had to peddle it a few times. Finally got back into it around the 1/8th on my second pass and it gained 28 mph to the 1000ft, it was pullin hard! Hope to get it out again soon and make some full passes with it.

Man, i hate feeling like i wasted my time when track prep is poor. Last night the traction fell off fast after i got my best of a 1.6 60 foot but was all over the rev limiter. Then the traction started fading. Asked a couple guys with more power than me but back halfed if they were going to make another pass, they said yea. Idiots.


Hope you can stick next time out man!

Well finally got another pass on the spray, went 10.24@130 on the 150 shot with a very conservative tune and a 3000+ da. Earlier on motor it went a 11.17@122. I think I was about or out of nitrous on the big end too, how many passes are you guys getting out of a 10lb bottle on a 1/4 mile 150 shot pass?

Dang, gives me hope for a 9 second slip. I have went 6.50s, I honestly think it has a 30 in it, I would love a 9 second time slip. I will probably run 10.0s and go home oh so close. LOL
