First of all, i dont think you will be able to hit my house from a mile away.
Second of all, where was this water balloon launcher when we needed to nail innocent bystanders over the summer?

I swear you are worthless

With a 150 shot and a 4.10 gear, he will be really close to running out of gear in 4th at the top of the track with the stock rev limiter. Also 4.10's are weak enough in a NA application on a 7.5" 10 bolt. With the added stress from the Torque that the nitrous puts out those 4.10's aren't gonna make it long. If he has 4.10's & ever goes to a H/C setup with a 150 shot he will run out of gear by the top of the track. I would recommend 3.73's or maybe 3.90's. He's gonna make enough torque outta the hole with the 3.73's & spray to make some pretty good short times.
