It's about time. New best!!!
 
It's about time I hit the 11's. It was a cold day at Atco but really couldn't complain. The crowd was much less than I expected also, again another pleasant surprise.

There was a lot of Mopar there and a few other NJFBOA members present.

I ran the car full weight including my Wawa lunch in the back ;) . I sprayed the 100 shot with a new Nitrous Outlet plate and what a difference. Last time out, I had major hesitation and rich issues right upon activation which bogged the car down horribly. The new plate hits hard and pulls smooth. I also mounted the nitrous bottle in the cabin between the rear seats which also helped since before it was in the trunk in-line with the rear end.

There is still more in the 60' department but this will do for now. It's a heavy vert so I think low 1.7's would be the most I can expect. If I get ambitious I will start removing the interior pieces and trim this baby down. I could also look into a more dedicated wheel/tire drag setup. I would love to pull a tire.

On the best run, I launched at 5200-5300 rpm and proceeded to floor it to use the nitrous in first. Shifted at 6100 in each gear and that was it.

Yea, on the spray peak power falls off decently above 5500. NA I run it to 6500 since the power peaks a little over 6100.

Nice to meet you again. My buddy was filming and I thought he would have got a better shot of both cars. I got another clip of you running NA (12.10 run) which I'm uploading now against DadsZ28.

I kept meaning to come by and say hi but each time I was walking around, I didn't see you at your car. Must have just missed you. I did recognize the car and got a video clip of one of your runs vs. dandrea86 . Uploading it now.

Thanks! I plan on beating on the car a bit harder this season since I have something else up my sleeve.

Would have been fun if you could have came out last night, Brian. I wonder what you would have ran? :lol:

I can't run the Bird at Island...no bar. I'm not complaining, its just the way it is. I was going to run the G8 since I wasn't happy with the new best from last season by adding the full exhaust.

Should be fun! I'm surprised this thread has some legs considering it was from last year.

JerzLT1 03-21-2010 06:23 PM

i still cant believe your MPH in that pig. i think that with some more seat time youll get that 60 down a good bit.
