Looks like things are coming along nicely, can't wait to see it run. I'm still kicking myself for ordering a regular Sunoco hood instead of the wide one.

Tony - you can only call it a drag car if it goes fast

Jeremy - Right now folks are focus on the shiny exhaust. I keep 'em looking at that and they'll never know what hit them when I pull both kits.

Good point Eric. Just keep telling 'em, "Look at the shiny exhaust, and the good lookin' hood.....oh, and don't mind all that tuff on the intake there. It's just various sensors for data logging

I think most people would call it the "stupid" size

Truth is I'll probably pill it till it hurts, then back it down a step. Most I've hit to date with the old system was a 400. Biggest shot on a full pass was 375.
This kit... we'll see what happens.

Just one more reason you could nominated for being a Hero! I wasnt looking at the exhaust...well, other than being a lil jealous mine doesnt have as much clearance I think before I get to the +3xx stage, I will need to upgrade the fuel system. Damn it.

Bad Azz is all I can say. Might be more of a bumper drager now, if that's possible.

Charlie - All I'm shooting for is being a racer

Robert - When I hit the 375 shot is was all at once with a slight delay. Actually a very boring pass with no wheelstand excitement. The new NX nitrous system will be a large shot out of the hole and another large shot immediately after. No use having multiple kits if you can't hit them right away. Goes back to my old 1/4 mile math - 40% of your time on the track is spent in the first 25% of the distance.

Dave - thanks my friend.

I should be having a big sale on race parts coming soon. I've replaced a lot of stuff that has already proven to go fast. I'm just always trying to go a little faster.
