Video, New PB 9.51 @ 142 Nitrous Street Car Here's a little video from the track rental that we had @ BMP on Saturday (Dead Hookers 6). These are the first times that I have ever carried the wheels more than a few inches. It was crazy. The car is hooking retarded. I brought slicks with me just to try them out but I couldnt get the DR's to spin so I didnt mess with the slicks.

. It was my first time going up like that so it will take a few times before I have the faith required to stay in it and hope you dont hit anything cause all that you see is sky.I went to PRI this weekend and saw somethings that should help me get into the 8's. On my list of things are the Amreican Racing 2" headers (currently running a 1 3/4 Jethot FTL), UD Pulley (still running the stock one), electric pump (still on stock), and a little more weight reduction. The car weighs 3350 w/o me and about 3675 with me in it. I can remove the air bags and door bars still. Should put me real close.
I am agressively persuing a new cam grind as well. My 244/248 612/615 111(+3)LSA cam doesnt seem to like the big shot as much as some of the bigger split grinds that I have seen. Crane has some big duration lobes w/o retarded amounts of lift. Thinking of trying a 246/256 624/624 113 (+2) LSA or so.

Congrats and nice launches.
What was that smoke or whatever coming out of the car when the guy says "UH OH!"
It happened more than once?
Not pushing water is a good thing!
I know it says LS2 402, but is that an Iron Block by any chance?
If not, how are you getting it to hold a 400 Shot?
Good luck, you def have more in it.

Transbrake still isnt working right. It will hold to about 4K RPM and then the car moves. What I was doing was holding the car to about 2500RPM and then when the first yellow comes down I would floor it and release the tbrake. As soon as the pedal hits the floor, the 200 shot comes in and starts the ramp.

Motor started life as an aluminum LS2 402. Hurt a piston and cylinder wall so I had to open it up a little. It's about a 408 now.
Low timing, rich on the fuel, and dont exceed 7200 RPM seems to keep it working.

Nice pass, sure once you sort out the chassis it'll fly. I'd look for a 1.43 or so on motor, and with the mph you ran 9.30 is definitely possible, do you have travel limiters?
I set up my friends car with a two step on the transbrake, and the nitrous hits as soon as the transbrake button is released, than way we are already full throttle.
