And I'm a dumbass for not thinking of that.

What are you guys' plans for this upcoming season? Are you going to run both the IHRA and NHRA circuits? What about the ADRL? Where are you going to run the Pro-Street car?

I could see 8 sensors plugged into a a pcm so you can tune each hole via o2 reading, and set the computer to do it automaticly...

Hit the IHRA hard like this year and then do whatever we can that doesnt interfere with IHRA. I think they are planning on running alot of Pro Street races (its easy money) j/k. And some ADRL when time allows.

NHRA hates nitrous. So we probably wont run many if any at all.

It would be pretty funny to see you guys go beat-up on Vinny in the NMCA. It wouldn't be much fun to get beat up on by the guys that help sponsor you.

In all seriousness I saw the pictures of his new 68 on your website and it looks awesome! And I hope you guys make the ADRL race in Houston.

N2OGMC- Why the change in fuels? I've noticed that the Nitrous Fuel has a higher octane but a lower specific gravity than the C-23. Was the change due to the specific gravity of the fuels, or a different reason? Just curious. Thanks.

The dynojet WBC already has the a/f feature....they are currently working on adding the TRUE window switch in to the program (I use the DJ WBC and have the nitrous engage at 3500rpms, and it is set to stop spraying if it goes leaner than 12.5). I am spraying it post maf (after the MAF) also, however, at WOT, my MAF commands an a/f ratio of 9.2:1.

I'm also sure that it wouldn't be too hard to add in a timing retard module, as the technology already exists and is readily available.

It already exists to a point...

I was wondering the same thing. Have you guys used the C-23+? It has the same specific gravity but a slightly higher octane rating.

I will have to ask. I have just seen the old N20 drums out back and the 23 inside. I will ask and get back. Although Torco was pissed at us for running VP stickers and gas in there shootout. Then VP got mad because all Torco's crap.

Yea we help them out alot, and he has an awesome car. But it will take alot more than that to beat us. We will probably beat up on him some we have alot of things to test in the P/S car that we have just came out with.

Can't make everybody happy I guess.

David Hance is going to race NMCA Pro Street this year with his Twin-Turbo Mustang instead of NMRA Pro 5.0. It could be a very good year this year for the NMCA in that class.
