First Runs With The Gas -- Knocking on 9's

Well made it to the track for some N2O testing. Only made 2 N2O passes,the first being a dud. The timing froze up and I didn't get a time <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> . They let me pull right back up, sooo I hot lapped it for another run. This also being my last run of the night...

60' 1.424
330' 4.190
1/8 6.504
MPH 105.52
1000' 8.497
1/4 10.165
MPH 135.40

Raceweight was 3480lbs, DA was -366 and 150 HP jets. Happy for first time out and setting on the progressive controller - 50% starting power with 2 second delay to full power.

Also learned the car does not like 4.30's with 28" slicks <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" /> on the motor only.

Sooo, I will going back to the track next weekend after working out some bugs <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I will post the video soon as I get it converted.

Kick *** times Allan! I say jet up a little and 9s will be in the bag. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I bet the 1.42 60' felt pretty good. <img border="0" alt="[worship]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

BTW, the car is alive again. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Might have some dyno #s tomorrow. I hope my fuel pump will keep up. lol

I can not get my car really to hook on the 27" tire with 4.30. I'm guessing the car bogged.

Second congrats on that #.. very, very quick.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Cool Allan!
How different was your first untimed pass from the timed one?

Re: First Runs With The Gas -- Knocking on 9's

I told you to put the 300hp shot in it!!!! Great job Allen...

One other question.... I know you're a young man and all and things are different for you but did you get a tingling sensation in the groin area when you hung that baby in fourth gear???? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

<blockquote>quote:<hr />Originally posted by wicked 98z: DAMN!!!!!!!! I wish I could afford a solid roller setup!

<blockquote>quote:<hr />Originally posted by Reckless: You still on a stock bottom end also? <hr /></blockquote>When he freshened the motor up in June it included a forged shortblock, since the gas was going to be the next mod. You can check out the mods here Project SS Mods

<blockquote>quote:<hr />Originally posted by Mike Hoffpauir:How different was your first untimed pass from the timed one? <hr /></blockquote>Mike the first n2o wasnt that great so I dont think it would have been a better time, it bogged a little

Re: First Runs With The Gas -- Knocking on 9's

Wow!!!! I wake up and the whole world has changed.. You are right there.. This is amazing with a 150 shot using the progressive controller with 50percent and then 2 sec delay for the full 150 shot.. Running 75 shot first and then BAM!!! 2 sec's is a long time.. I am not a nitrous guru by any means, but I think if you either hit it with 75% and a 1 sec delay for full power.. You are in the 9's baby.. Or drop down to 3.73's and hit it with a 200 shot and change your tire height.. What do you guys think? Allan is teasing us.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: First Runs With The Gas -- Knocking on 9's

Allan,

Couple of Qs:

How high do you spin it on the hose? Any worries about the stock crank?

Did you have the crank heat treated or and special processes performed to it?

Do you have any pics of your N20 setup? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

congrats!
