1/8 mile track
60ft 1.3419
330 3.9367
594ft 5.7217
1/8 6.1229
1/8 mph 112.15 This was on a 175 hit. I was shooting for the high 5's but forgot my nitrous book so I didn't know the higher jet numbers.I think the 6.1229 comes out to be 9.68 in the 1/4?

Question? They got onto me for not having gloves and a neck support..What do I need to keep them happy.sfi-3-3/5 or sfi-3-3/1 thats the numbers for the gloves.Numbers for the neck support all read the same which makes it easy SFI-3.3.Thanks,Bill

At 1st the day was a little messed up.I made a pass and the nos didn't work.Tuesday at the track the wire came off of the wot switch so I stuck it back on not knowing I put it on the wrong pronge.I messed with this thing for two hrs yesterday and no worky.Well here comes a guy I know pretty good and offered his help and it didn't take long for him to show me how stupid I is.He switch the wires and guess what? You got it -it was working again.He said that's his reg job,he works with all types of switches everyday.HE SAVED THE DAY.

9.50's? WOW. The new cam really woke the nova up on nitrous. Driver, Not quite 9.50's but real close, low 9.60s @ 139 MPH. John Wilson's car almost exactly the same right down to MPH at the eighth. My son's went right at 9.60 with the 540 in it. Nice run.

Bob,I ran wensday night on the motor only and it would not break the 11.0 mark.It was real hot and humid and I hope that was the reason for the lower ET?

Went again today to try to break into the 5's and I SUCK.This is my very 1st real race(meaning I have only been going to TNT'S. I entered super pro and was terrible on the tree.I MEAN TERRIBLE.I double bulbed one guy and was all over the tree.(RED OR LATE) I ran my 1st TNT pass at noon on the same set-up and it came out of the hole all stupid and just missed the wall so the thought of going up on the nitrous was put on the back burner.I was going to go up another 50hp to get into the 5's but will try another day.Best run today was 6.14 at 112mph with a 1.33 60ft.
