Looks like you gotta tighten up your front shocks a little to keep that Camaro from bouncing like that..

Only a 1 second gain with a 200 shot? Thought you would gain alot more with that. I have heard of people gaining about a second on a 100 shot. The mph gain seems good though. Are you spraying through frist?

Yea and thats the tricky part. The car has more in it but getting the 60ft down is why the time doesnt reflect the shot. Spraying out of the hole and making it stick is going to take some work. Once I go to an auto should be a lot easier.

Since you updated your sig I'm guessing that was your first 9 sec pass?? If so congrats!!

Edit: I just read the first sentence of your post.. man I'm slow

Yea that is what I figured. I haven't been down the track with my 100 shot yet, but I have my window switch bringing the shot in at about 3800rpm-6000rpm. I would like to pick up around .8-1 second and 8-10mph if possible. I'm probably being to optimistic though....

Auto should definitely be better for everything. That shifting wastes so much time and the car doesn't get back into power until that suspension is fully compressed.

Great run though.
