I bought a bottle heater for the nitrous to be installed this evening or tomorrow. My pressure was only 775psi and the truck didnt really pull that hard. With 1000psi, that should hit harder. Im getting itchy about good weather and going to the track. If not tomorrow, then Wednesday is a viable option.

Ouch, 775 is no bueno. I run a minimum of 1050. Rod, a tip on the heater, take the hermostats slap out. They suck. They cut of around 1000 psi, and kick in only when thay want. Also, tommorow is looking like a low of 63°, and 99% humidity. 10% chance of rain. Whadda ya think? Worh it or wait til next week?

If it is clearing off and looking sunny, then the humidity will be taken care of with the N2O. I say we go. If it really cloudy then maybe go Wednesday or Friday next week.
Im hoping to run at least a 12.4. I dont think I can leave the line on the juice though. I am going to try to hit the button at about 30ft out and see what happens. Come on 110mph!! laugh

Youll have to join us soon for a little drag action at OSW. The weather is very nice. Talk to you soon, Rod K.
