Car ran off the trailer an 11.20 at 121 mph and car shot down??? So I thought I ****ed up again, well found out the front bowl was sticking and letting a lot of fuel to drop in the intake. Fix it, and up the shift from 6500 to 7000rpm, 11.05 at 122.79. Let it cool off and gave her almost 2 degrs of timing, so about 33 1/2 total timing, car runs 11.03 at 123.22 miles. Track was not hooking and car was a handfull at top end. Now, got ready the nitrous, fuel 6psi flowing and took out 9degrs at the retard box for a total of 24* on 225 shot, that is pretty conservative. Launch it on the 2 step and she was gone, I down the pill from 7000 to 6800 shift point, at the transisiton point of the 1/8 mile towards the 1/4 mile, the car got very loose, so I lifted and was ready to abort, but decide to nail it, it lost a bit of traction, lift and nail it again, and it still ran a 9.94 at 136.80 mph!!!, this bitch is fast. I decide not to run again because track will not hold, it could of run a 9.60 if the track would of hold, so decided to go home. Here is the kicker, 1/8 mile was 6.31 at 105.80, that is were I lost traction, then nail it a couple of times, it picked up 31mph from the 700ft mark to the 1/4.

Thanks, we are going to put some gost flames in it, with the same color but lighter. The quater panels at the back bottom, were the tires always chips there 1/4 panels there are going to be repaired and cut the opening of the fender at the front of the rear tire, when the slicks grows it scrubs there and I don't want a flat on the top end. Are you going to spray yours at the FFW T/S?
