Default First run with the LS1 and nitrous

So last night i finally got to the track and here's how she did:

R/T: .096
60' 2.015
330 5.360
1/8 8.014
mph 91.83
1000 10.331

1/4 12.276
mph116.30

I didn't start spraying until the very end of first, and then my car didn't want to shift from 2-3 so i had to get out of it pretty good so i didn't hit the rev limitor (dry shot + rev limitor = bad times), but once it finally shifted i got back in to her to finish the run.

I think if i would have sprayed a little earlier and my car would have shifted like it should i might have reached my goal of hitting the 11's....

What do you guys think? Any thoughts on the 2-3 shift would be MUCH appreciated!!!

I don't think you would have hit the 11's. Maybe a 12 flat. Stick the damn thing in drive and go. Get some stickier tires and spray off the line and you'll be fine.

It was in drive, I have stock stall, and a stock rear end. is that a good idea to spray off the line?

Well, get that 60' down to 1.8 or so, and you should meet your goals easily when the car is shifting properly. Do you use a shift-kit? Not really an expert on autos, but don't you have to have a special stall for shifting through shifts with nitrous, otherwise you must use the shift-kit?
