Default 10.26 first time out

I went to the track for the first time with this car. I cant stall the car up on the line because I still have the power brakes on it. It is a nitrous car so the converter is tight that would explain the slow 60ft.
First pass off the trailer
10.34 at 133 1.56 60
second pass
10.42 132 1.56 60ft
third pass
10.31 133 1.55 60ft
forth and best pass

60 1.53
330 4.309
1/8 6.599 107mph
1000 8.585
1/4 10.26 134mph


not bad for a fresh nitrous engine

I don't think my car is gonna run anywhere near that N/A.. made a few shakedown runs last night with just a basic street tune and I wasn't very pleased. I am hoping it picks up about 3 tenths after we go to the dyno and we go to a good hooking track..

What rear end gears are you running???

Yeah, i hate running on motor in a nitrous setup. It's amazing how big of a difference it is. My car on motor, 1.65 footbrake, on a small shot 1.39 footbraking it
