Default First time to spray today, it was cool.

I finally got my TNT dry kit installed and I ran it today against my friends 97 Z. I pulled about 8 car lengths on him from 30 to 90. It was awesome. i can tell my clutch wont hold up very long because it you could definitely smell it. My buddy says there was alot of smoke coming out of the tail pipe. It doesnt do this when im not spraying so is this just the N2O being exhausted or is this abnormal? <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

My friend said the smoke was a gray color. I imagine this is just the nitrous being exhausted. Am I right?

Congrats on the silly gas victory <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
My car was bone stock when I added the NOS dry system and the car totally <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" /> the clutch out in about a dozen runs. Pill it down to 75hp and dont use the juice till over 3500rmp..this will slow you down but make your clutch a little happier, though it will eventually die a stinky,slipping death.

Fast SS, What all have you done to your motor besides the heads and cam? Is it a stock 346? 10s are pretty fast with only a NOS dry shot, heads, and cam.

Why would that be really fast? I have seen rapid motorsport cars run 11.20-30 range with heads cam 346ci and no juice

I could tell you, but then I would have to kill you. There are a ton of guys running in the midwest doing either 10's with stripped NA cars, or low 11's with full interior cars. I was running 11.5's on the motor alone with slicks and a 6speed. I got bored so i strapped back on the bottle did some reprogramming and came up with a killer package. Going to the track today, to test out my new HP Motorsport Mega Bite Torque arm. Replaced my old BMR for this new more radical piece. 60ft times are going down today!
