Good thing its not to serious.

Yeah . . it's nothing. Just a bent butterfly. It'll cost me about $100 to get it fixed.

That is sick man, sucks u didn't get a slip. Next time :santa_afro:

Yeah, I REALLY wish I hadn't had to jump the light so I could have had a slip for the run.

But, put it this way . . with my shift light set at 7100 on the 3.73 gear, I have never had the shift light come on in third gear. On this run, I had the shift light set at 7300 and it came on well before the 1,000 foot mark. The car was haulin the freakin MAIL! :D

If you do the math http://www.wallaceracing.com/calcmph.php 7300rpm with a 28" tire and a 3.73 gear = 163.09 I factored in 5% converter loss and got 154.85. That's not factoring in tire growth.

heck yeah!

Unfortunately, there's no vid of the nitrous backfire blowing the hood scoop off. :(

There is a vid of the pass, though.

I only shot 100 on Sunday and the kit is 300 capable. Considering what it did on the 100 shot, I shudder to think what the 300 will do. 8)

Thanks for your help at the track, brother. It was nice meeting you and Heather. :santa_afro:

I'm still trying to track down some video of the nitrous run.
