Congratulations! Seems like the bar keeps getting upped around here.

How big a shot were you running? Just wondering what it takes to do that.

Yup, the car's turning into a real crowd pleaser!
The Oooo's and Ahhh's <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I'm running an NX kit that I've been runnig for
almost 3 years, and the 100hp jets make 100hp, not
like the stuff I see today.

It was pilled to 175shot. I was considering upping
the jets to a 200shot for a while there <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Thanks fella's. It's been a long time comin' to
this point. I was due.

The car ran an 11.14 on motor the last time out
when I still had the TH-400 in it.

I didn't get a chance for a shake-down full pass
with the new Glide, but I think it may have a
11.05 in it on motor. The Glide's gear ratio's are
not so good for motor passes with 28 inch tires and
3.73 gears, so I think it will be a wash in ET's
between the old TH-400 setup and the new Glide
setup.

I *might* pick up a tenth with the new glide on
motor.
