Engine was iced down for an hour in 60 degree ambient temps...



The timing lights for the 1/8th mile were in discussion for the day at the track amoungst all who ran regularly. During their attempt to fix the problem, they killed the entire timing system for the evening, hence no NOS timeslip of my 13.8 at 103 ran on the same day. frown
Sorry, but their timing equipment is screwed. You're not even running 71mph in the 1/8th, but somehow your car pulls off a 14.7@93mph. I don't buy it. Unless your car has some late stage "VTEC" or your NOS. There's no way you can get a 93mph trap with a 70.X 1/8th mile trap. I've run lots of 14.7@94mph and my trap speeds are in the 75-76mph range. That's huge compared to 70.Xmph. If you're getting 70.Xmph in the 1/8th, you'll be lucky to get 90mph in the 1/4mile.

To me, this looks like a NOS that wasn't functioning correctly. A 2.0 60' with a low torque FWD is incredible which makes me believe the NOS was engaged off the line, then went flat in the mid range, and then finally kicked on in the topend.
