New best w/125 shot and videos

Well, I FINALLY managed to get my car to the track for the first time with the nitrous. 125 wet shot. Other than that, the car is just a bolt on car, so I don't think it did too bad. She seems to LOVE the nitrous.

Best run of the night was a 12.05 @ 116...that was about killing it off the line, haha.

The pass that actually had a good launch was a 12.009 @ 104...yes, 104...damn tranny stuck in 4th and couldn't get to 5th in time. That would have been an 11 sec timeslip for sure.

It was the best pass of the night for sure until the 4th gear thing.
60' 1.82
1/8 7.637 @ 93.84 mph

After that pass, could never repeat the launch as well and then started to run out of nitrous and the MPH started to drop some. How much would 3.73s help since i could stay in 4th?

Here are some videos...look for the ones labeled "mattrun"

I know she has 11s in her, but I gotta wait till next season. That was the last test n tune of the year.

very nice runs.......gets me all excited about nitrous. What times did you run before the nitrous, NA? Did you spray spray off the line or did you wait awhile?

Its a beautiful thing, an f-body with minimal bolt-ons and is almost in 11-sec. territory. Very nice runs

Re: New best w/125 shot and videos

Actually, I havent made any all motor passes on DRs. Last February was my best all motor times. 13.3 @ 107 with a spinning 2.2 on street tires. I had planned on getting some all motor runs in, but I was too focused on trying to get 11s.

I wasn't spraying right off the line. I a WOT switch and also have it set on a window switch to spray from 3k to 6k with my rev limiter set at 6300 for a little cushion. On the 12.009 pass right as I was coming off the clutch completely and went WOT it was at 3k so it started spraying. Was a great launch, but the tranny didnt think so when it came time for 5th.

Thanks for the comments...yes Nitrous is a wonderful thing. I LOVE it.

Did I mention 145k miles on the clock?
