unfortunatly that was about the only good thing that went on tonight. first pass on the new combo with nitrous (just a 75hp shot) car came up on the bumper HARD. ended up smashing 4 of the header primaries, hit the oil pan, tranny pan, and steering rack and popped one of my AFCOS. later made a couple passes lauching at lower RPMs and pulling 2nd gear as soon as it started coming up. managed a 9.98 @ 133 with the 75hp jets. shut the nitrous off just after the 1/8 and went the last few hundred feet on the rev limiter. made a couple NA passes also, did a 10.52 @ 127

hopefully for next weekend the wheelie bars that are on my floor will be on the car, along with a gear change and some bigger jets. got a lot of things to fix too

 

very nice runs man!

 

Congratulations, sounds like you have the power and the suspension there now (maybe a bit too much of the latter!)

Sorry to hear about your broken parts, but at least it was for a worthy cause!

 

man, if only you had a video of the launch

 

i have videos of 3 straight 1.33 launches im going to try to get converted and posted. no vid of the bumper stand though
