Default first time on nitrous what do you think?

Well I finally sprayed it for the first time this weekend at the GAFBA shootout. I was really pleased cnsidering my car weighed in with a raceweight of 3780lbs <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" /> let me know what yall think. The car picked up just over a sec and 10mph with a 150 shot. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

MOTOR PASS
.551 RT
1.616 60'
4.841 330'
7.459 1/8 95.11
9.697 1000'
11.562 1/4 121.65

GAS looked like this
.754 RT caught me sleepin on a PRO tree <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" />
1.461 60' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
4.398 330'
6.796 1/8 102.65
8.829 1000'
10.534 1/4 131.84 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

MY best MPH on the day was on a 10.62 pass which was 132.33.

I decided that I like GAS <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />
Now it's time for the car to go on a diet. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Yeah I was looking at that. Also I could probably go to an Automatic and knock off a decent amount as it stands.

Hmmmmm...decisions..decisions... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Oh well that will probably be this winter's project.
