150 of the brake, 150 delayed .5 second.
We have plenty left in that tune, but I think we're going up just to compete in the class.

Of course there not corrected. Is what it is.
Probably only pick up another .2-.3 tenths elsewhere.

I trapped those kinda numbers on a 150.

At 9500+ DA it doesn't run anything like anyone else around the country. I think 11.6 might have been my best Made VERY few motor passes. With 3.73 gear and TIGHT converter it never 60' until i gave it 250+ from the jug.

Like I said I missed 2nd that pass and went straight to 3rd, so I'd guess there is a good .10 left in that tune. Hope to get a 8 sooner than later

Nice run anyways, what are you planning on tweaking for 8s, if anything?

As I said in my other post, that car looks great and screws to boot.

Use all 3 gears

We have more jet to play with & timing/fuel.

Started off going 144 at the beginning of the weekend with the 150/150 by the end of the weekend we where going 148.98 just by tweaking fuel and timing a little at a time.

Nice.... There are a few FAST as **** nitrous cars online right now. yours,mine, Tony Shep, Taner is still flyin, Ellis..... People are still pushing the LT1 envelope....

Mine 60 footed pretty good on motor with a 4000 stall, 3.89 gear... 1.50 is the best it went on motor.... When we attempted to use the 150 shot we only got 1 pass (i'm running MT DR's) due to time constraints and it obliterated the tires cuz the transbrake didn't turn the nitrous off for some reason.... so I wasted about 200' of track, had to lift and shift to 2nd and get back on it.... I think it'll go 141-142 on a clean no drama pass.... I'm getting ready to probably put double adjustable shocks on the back....

Yours is SICK... great job so far..... 8's seem to be right around the corner.... what's the rotating assy consist of????
