That was a shitty night.

I red lit in the first round, but that didn't really bother me that bad! I was upset, but not overly upset.

Because I had the bottle to test out! Well, when I tried to purge it the purge woulen't spray! The noid doesn't liek more than 900 psi, so I cool the bottle down and the purge works great! However the run didn't provide ANY improvement. So I figured the nitrous wasnt' working. Well I pulled off the nitrous line and fuel line from the plate and had my Wife go over 3000rpms holding down the WOT switch and the both nitrous and fuel came out of the lines! However the nitrous was coming out in spurts! So I assumed it was working okay!

Anyway! I give it two more runs to see if I can get it to improve my times and nothing. All 3 of my nitrous runs produced the same ET's that it does N/A.

Not to mention I didn't feel that "kick in teh pants" that people speak about!

The lines sprayed fuel and nitrous when I pulled them off to test them, but you can tell that its not getting into the motor some how! Tomorrow is going to be fun!

What a shitty day! Maybe the 19th will be better. IT BETTER BE!!!

You still hold your spot Rey!!! For the moment.

I made it to the semi-finals tonight.. ran a new best in time trials. 12.950 @ 105.69 mph (60': 1.851)

Lost in the semis purely on the tree.. we both ran exactly .01 off our dial in.... she just had me by .05 at the tree. Good race.

Not bad for me. I made it through the first round tonight. Slept at the tree in the second round. seems the track got slower as the night went on. Ran 11.89@ 115 to finish the night. Not bad but really looking forward t next week where I can cut a good 60ft and maybe get to the mid 11's. A big thanx to Mark for the secret weapon last night. You are the MAN!!!. Congrats on your best time!!
