Just wondering what I am going to have to beat at the strip tomorrow  Hoping to crack into the 13's since the temp should be in the 30's. Who has the highest official time slip from a drag strip. No g-techs. I think bnoon ran a 13 with the nitrous. Anyone faster?

Same day I ran my 14.7 that I did get a timeslip from... [img] http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1582441&a=12040682&p=43794954[/img]

High RPM launch slipping the clutch, slight wheel spin, no hop. Stage very, VERY shallow (barely turn on the second stage light). This allows your car to roll forward a foot or so without breaking the beams of light to start your time which in turn lowers your 60' and hence, your 1/4 mile time. Old racer's trick.

Track for me too tommorow night too. Should be low 50's here. Now that I got the N20 running right, I hope for low 14's as well. One thing I do not have is the bottle heater, which I know would shave a few 1/10's off. This thing hits like a biitch when @ 1100 psi. Mine will be with a 75 shot in. I too won't be beating a damn 2.09!! HTF did you accomplish that!!

[/b] How about some slightly worn BFG comp T/A VR-4's at 35 psi  Best I've managed with that combo is a 2.3. Wish I had something to pump the tires back up for the ride home...then I'd lower them to 20 psi.
