Went to the track tonight (Nitrous)
Well just got back from the track tonight. Ran nitrous twice and the rest N/A and the best I could pull with nitrous was a 14.7 @ 93 mph. Heres what the slip looked like:
RT: .248
60': 2.348
330': 6.281
1/8: 9.549
MPH: 74.87
1000: 12.372
1/4: 14.762
MPH: 93.76
It was probably the best races I ever raced. I only beat the guy across the line by .15 seconds. He had an S-10 with a V8 im assuming. He was ahead of me by a yard most of the way down the track until I pulled on him at the end because I had more top end power. His time was 14.4 at 89.47 MPH but had a 2.064 60 foot
I got him off the line though real bad his R/t was .751. Well there you go all you guys who didn't think a 50 shot could knock off more then a second off your E/T. My best ever was a 15.97 and that only happened once.

Rep Power: 296 Yes I will get images of my nitrous slip here in a minute. I dont have a scanner but I do have a digital camera but I took a few but you couldn't really see anything that well. Does anyone know how to take a good picture this way cuz I think its all the lightings fault. I will post the best one I got up.
Im sorta embarrassed to post my N/A slip from tonight. I ran a 16.8 and i was eliminated from the first round of the comp because I bogged my launch. If you guys still want to see N/A I can post tonights or some old ones if I can get clearer images.

I think this proves me and s2000mans point. Your not gonna drop a second and a half (as dj moto claimed) and your not gonna hit 13's on a 50 shot.

Rep Power: 0 Nice Times! Welcome to the 14sec club
If you got that 60ft down to a 2.0 on some drs you would be hitting some low 14's. 2.1-2.2 on street tires would probally put you around 14.4-14.5. What were your other NA runs?
Damn I need to finish my install and get some runs in.

^^^ You know to this day i still do not get how that works my cousin has a race car and it ran 7.6 and he lost to a guy who ran 7.8 can you explain this better? Does the time start when you start?

Rep Power: 324 the et clock starts as soon as you roll out of the beams. Not when the green light comes on. If I ran a 15 sec run and you ran a 10 sec run but you stayed at the light for 6 seconds I would cross the finish line 1 second ahead of you and win the race. I would win with a higher ET. your reaction time would be 6 seconds. I hope this helps you out. 
I am working on taking pics of my time slips to muffle the doubters. stay tuned.

Rep Power: 0 hard to make out, but you ran a 16.2@83mph correct? If so, you gained 10mph and shaved a 1.5 sec off your et. That's pretty damn good. What was your bottle PSI? Did you spray in first?
I hate scanning slips, it always takes me like a 100x's to get it to come out clear and small enough to post.

Rep Power: 400 i'm amazed. i've never seen someone get 10mph on their trap and 1.5 seconds off their ET from a 50shot. i'm willing to bet your car is capable of MUCH better than a 15.97 off the nitrous. you just haven't been able to capitalize on that.
