Smile just wanted to say thanks

Had some rocky patches with a few members here and i wanted too apologize for ring a dick a few times. Was getting very frustrated after putting 20k into a car and not being able too get it right. That being said i got the car too the dyno last week and made 354 rwhp and 379 rwtq on the mustang dyno on motor. After working till 3 am this morning on my nitro dave plate kit i finally got the car all ready for the track today. I endured a 3 hour drive this morning leaving at 6:30 am after only 2 1/2 hours of sleep. I was a little intimidated at first,I've never ran a car on a prepped track. With stock rearend and transmission i decided too be brave and run a 100 shot with my new mt et streets 26/11.5/17's. First run on motor i ran a 13.5@ 111 mph burning the tires through first gear. Convinced i would do better without burning the tires i ran the 100 shot the 2nd run and hit a 13.0 at 115 spinning badly once again. My 3rd run my friend wanted too ride with me. I let the car cool for 20 minutes and pulled a big old john force burnout in the waterbox. We hooked very well and ran a 12.8 at 108.8 with a 1.89 60ft. When i pulled back into the pits i discovered a leaky solenoid and believe i was loosing pressure and spray and not getting the full shot. Overall i am happy with my results but i definitely think i could've ran way better had i not had the solenoid issues. Im still in awe at how well the a4 and 10 bolt held up. I know you will probably move this thread but i wanted too make sure the apology was read by the guys who frequent this particular forum. On a side note ill be running a 200 shot wednesday night and i am 100% addicted too spray nowblol. I was also very rich with the 100 shot. Afr was 10.4 at wot. I think ill try the 200 jets in the nitro dave kit and if its still rich ill go down too the fuel jetbforbthe 150. Again thanks for all the helpbguys. I also handed a 476rwhp terminator his *** today and itbfelt great.

This one had an eaton blower . I saw the dyno sheet from the car and it did make 474 rwhp on a mustang dyno. I also raced a volkswagen gti and won. Raced a stock 99 camaro 6 speed and won. Lost too a 07 c6 twin turbo vette and an 88 olds cutlass running a 300 shot on a 650 hp motor.
