no i only got two nitrous runs in, both 105 mph, thats only a 75 shot too, it will be a lot more fun when its cooler and when i learn how to use it without being extra extra safe about it, i need the automatic rpm switch to control it.

have fun last night, sorry about your tire todd, you have the worst tire luck.

alans first run he was just spinning like crazy, second run, he left it on no boost, (how he does his burnouts. i think like 6 pounds) then never turned the boost controler back up for his run, so he took off and realized it and left off and coasted.

last night was really hot and humid, cant wait till it gets cooler, todd you will hit high 12s for sure with that beast, and by then i will be knocking on your back door. i have to lift my car back up cause of traction problems. i guess it really does camber a lot more past two inches.

Besides Almost being killed at the track by the 8 sec. Mustang that lost control I had an awesome time. I couldnt believe all the mods everyone had on their G's. Next time I will run.

My last run was a 13.5 @ 103 w/ lots of spinning.

Jermey if you interested in any of the N20 parts I have let me know. They will all be coming off the car in a couple weeks. (Heater, CF electric guage, remote bottle opener, window switchs, etc.)

Did Ryan get home ok? All I know is that his G (the one w/o the nail in the tire ) was in front of my house when I went to bed on Friday night and it was gone on Saturday morning.

Yeah I gave him a ride. I think Jeremy and I are going back to the track on Wednesday so that I can get a respectable time. I ran a 13.2 at 109.8 with a 2.28 60ft at 10.5 psi. I have it tuned now for 13.0 lbs but by wednesday it will be turned up to 14psi. I know it will run quicker then.

Darn. Wed is no good for me. I'm heading back this Friday (I think) with a couple of buddies of mine outside of the club. Maybe I'll see some of you all up there.

You guys need better tires.

Strange to have spent all this money on horsepower, but none on tires. Buy a cheap set of 15" wheels and get a set of drag radials if you want to drive them on the street too.

You'll be surprised at the difference.

Also; colder weather will increase power, but traction will be poorer.

Neff,

Don't be down by a 13.5 pass. That's consistant with most of the Vortech's. Traction out of the whole is our worse enemy. The fastest I've been able to achieve is a 13.2 @ 109...that was with a 2.22 60ft. And you're right, these PIAA's don't help!

Thanks for caring, Todd. As Alan stated, he gave me a ride. So how lucky was I??? I rode to the track in a Vortech G and got a ride back home in a GReddy TT built G.

Looks like I'll be going on Friday again. I would love to go tonight but it doesn't look like the weather will hold up.
