Default M6 Nitrous people

Just wondering if who leaves the line on the juice or if you have a delay and if so what type. I think me trying to leave on the juice is hurting my ET and want some advice, I do have a TT with a delay feature just never use it. Thanks

Is it just a stupid idea to try to leave on the spray? A friend who is a pretty seasoned racer is telling me it is, I feel he's right but just wanted to get more than one source of input. Thanks.

i assume you are on some sticky tires, and are able to hook. i think if you had some sort of progressive controller that started you off at a lower rate of a shot and then became heavier, it would be more feasible to spray off the line.

10" M/T ET Drag slicks........but the car breaks loose and starts spinning in the top of 1st gear. I marked the bead and the rim and the tires spun about an 1" on the rim the last pass I tried leave on the juice. Dont really know of it's leaving on the juice or just the shock of a 5k+ clutch drop.

I figured that was coming, they never spun on the old 15x7" wheels but now that they are on a wide enough wheel the contact patch is spread out and my 60' has improved. I'm just a little leary of drilling holes in brand new wheels.

Its all in the suspension and tire/pressures and a very good burnout....oh...and clutch too.

Thanks, I guess I really need to invest in some good suspension components.

WOW! Nice setup, looks like I'll be going with a BMR TA also. When Thunder built my exhaust they took out the crosmember that the exhaust hangs from and busted the spot welds for the boxes it bolted to and removed them also for clearance. BMR is the only good brand that makes a T/A that dosent mount to the transmission or in that second crosmember location.
