Second pass on this set-up with the fresh 275s. Rode it has long as I could, car was creeping toward the wall, I let out and went back to it on the way down, but didn't catch it in time(Its not as easy as you and I think it is).

Make sure and check the block over very well, mine broke the pan and cracked the block where the trans bolts are on about the same size wheelstand. Also bent the trans input shaft and TCI flexplate.

Dang... that slomo vid is cool.
So for us that have never done that before, what is the suggested emergency plan, short shift all the gears but don't let off? Seems like it would be hard to keep my foot on the gas if I was seeing the stars.

Of course, we use your typical wide open throttle switch, and window switches. We're also running an NX Maximizer Progressive Controller, and an MSD 7531 box. Although ultimately, the nitrous is wired through a button on the steering wheel. If the button isnt down, the jug isnt spraying. So when the car gets up on the bumper, which it likes to do anyway, all our driver has to do is just barely let off the button, and the car will nose back down under control!
In this video, he was on and off the nitrous four times before the car came down!

Been there and **** my pants as well. If your not expecting it it's a split second decision I lifted altogether and cracked the pan. My skin crawled with the sound that car made when it hit the ground. I have a set of Madman travel limiters and the SYA bars now i'm hitting the track in 2 weeks with another 55 at the rear wheels. I hope my plan works LOL.
