Well I was a litttle disappointed wih my car today at the track.

I noticed when i was doing my motor passes I could hear something like air .. But just didn't think much of it I thought it was my hatch or window not closed all the way. Come to find out I had a nitrous fitting not tighten all the way down and it was nitrous coming out. Who knows how much was lost at that time.. So we fixed it and went on our way . So

I Went from 11.8 last season to 11.3 this season on motor .

I wanted to do my nitrous pass and see what it would really run ... So I do my burn out and I purge the nitrous it looked a little weak but, just thought being so ******* hot it was ok. I was also messing with the tire peasure all night.... I ended up 17.5 psi.

Get ready light goes green and off I go and no more then I pass the tree the car acts like it has nothing... and I'm like wtf is going on!!! busted another 11.3 but this time I got my best 60ft 1.63... I ran out of ******* nitrous I had nothing ... So I know how that damn leak cost me about $30 to 40 plus my new best time I lost all th nitous with the damn leak or what little i had went to the only damn pass..

Sean thats a huge improvement considering that when you ran your 11.8 the DA was way lower than today.. I know the disappointment is more for not being able to run on dope, but don't worry, you can expect to be at least a half second faster than your previous time as well. I need to stop giving you all my secrets.. On a positive note, you still need to dial it in just a bit more and you should be really low 11s and maybe a high 10.

Weight loss, new transmission ,new stall, new shocks, new suspension stuff

This was also run on my nitrous tune and not all motor tune.

It wasn't fun watching, without having my car out. But I notice someone needs a lot of seat time at the track. I hope to be out soon, New turd coming to a local track near you.

Great runs Sean! Sucks about the nitrous but sounds like you're going to e knocking low 10's out and on the cusp of single digits.
