Had a red top in mine for 4 years out back, never a problem. Guess it's luckier for some?

Sup dude!!!! Yeah, there's just so much on ls1tech, I used to keep up on every section, but I don't have the time for that anymore, so I kind of just stick in the nitrous section. I've got some vids from a recent track trip i'll be postin up in here though in the next couple days!

Yeah, they're my first few runs on a 300 shot again since puttin the 90mm intake/tb on the car. She went 144 through the traps last week, but the track wasn't there, wouldn't even hook one stage with no limiters, you'll see the difference of the track from one of the other runs in the vid that was a few weeks before when it was a night that the track was in good condition!

Devon, How old was your battery? Any full size battery should atleast last 3yrs if it doesn't then I don't think the battery is the problem. It may be a charging issue. I have an autozone gold battery for the street and my car is only driven on the weekends and its been in the car for over 2 years. Starts up fine. For the track I went with the Odyssey PC680 mini battery (15lbs). -Mark

I thought it might be the charging system too, that's why I kept changing **** there and nothing, i've got a 170 amp alternator I put in a couple months ago, and more than enough size on the wires, the batt was just garbage, it was about a year and half old. This new odyssey is doin good so far, hopefully it stays that way!
