Default Nick & Dan racing at the track

Nick and I went out to Kennedale Wednesday night for a little racing.. I had a blast up there.. We hot lapped it over and over.. Most of my runs were N/A but a couple on the N20.. The N20 wasn't really working too good for me today, some reason I was having tranny issues where I couldn't shift into 2nd all that good on the bottle. My best run on the bottle was a 7.34@93+mph with 1.54 60fts.. Thats a little off from what it normally runs.. My best N/A was a 7.78@87+mph with a 1.58 60ft and I was at full weight in the car.. All the seats etc were in tack.. Most of my other runs were 7.8's@86mph.. If I could just shift this TKO like the stock tranny I would have went 7.6's easy on motor..
Nicks car was running awesome.. For just bolt ons he was running 7.8's @92mph most of the night with just 1.98 60fts... If his car could hook like mine does that thing would run easy low 7's.. I got all of our runs on Video and when streetfire finishes uploading it I will post it.. The video is not edited I just uploaded it right off the camera..

It was a blast up there at Kennedale, more people should go out there with us.. And stop worring about your stock 10 bolt Nick didn't break his on the BFG dragradials..

I think that I will take a car or 2 out there pretty soon. Maybe both and see what a 300 shot will land me in the Z.

Here is the vid of me actually spraying it.. On one of those clips in the other video I purged to spray but I didn't flip on the right activation switch. I turned the bottle heater on instead.. LOL

Don't worry, its going to be alot faster at the Cruise.. I have to change a few things up before then.. That is why I was doing the testing on Wed. so I can figure out what I need to change up on the setup.. I'm going to change the rear gears, the 4.10's are too much for the bottle and they are slowing the car down, I got to take some weight out, and hopefully my K-member and A-arms will be in.. I'm looking at running at least 7.1's at the cruise if not more..
