Default Nitrous record comes to the midwest

Came back from the track yesterday and right off the trailer we went a 8.11 with an 8 at 169 mph.The mph is what gives us the record but i don't think this will hold long due to to many fast cars coming out this season.Track conditon was crap for us so we were not able to turn on the second kit.Better times coming soon.Enjoy the vid.

on this pass i cant remember but the hit before it it went 5.21. which was the very first hit on the motor. its safe to say with a good track under it this same tune up will put this car in the 7's with ease.
