$2000 in mods=12.5

At the track I ran 5 full runs with nitrous and this morning I checked the gauge and it was around 825 psi with no bottle warmer on it, so I figure there's a few more runs in it. I mean, as much as I love running 12's, its impossible to make every track and street event every weekend. I really don't see me going to the track again until I at least get a VLSD pumpkin. If someone wants to call this car out, then just give me an hour notice and I'll be ready

everyone always claims cheap power with nitrous and how fast their cars are.. but no one factors in how many times they fill the damn bottle

Installed it Friday and ran a 12.5 Saturday. Although some of the money in Misc. was for a fill-up. I just thought to keep it at a round number.

We need to get on a dyno! I know the tune is too conservative... which is not your style!
If filling up your NOS bottle should go up on your mod list, then filling up with race gas at the track should added also. Either way, 12.5 is a pretty awesome run.
With your next $1500 dollars or so, I would consider some weight reduction. Some dont cost any money at all, (removing spare if you havent already and such) or perhaps lighter battery, radiatior, wheels, seats etc. Thats where most of money money is going to be spent this winter.

you need to get rid of that open diff!!
it is possible to run 11s on a Z with slicks, a way to retard the timing and a 150 shot...
good luck jay!!
i happen to have a "friend"
with a bottle warmer very very close that i can get you for right under 200 bills brand new when you get a couple dollars, the difference in 875 and 1050 is HUGE!!!! no joke..

Good point, but then all it takes to take someout out is 10 seconds or less right? So after you've done your business you can cruise on home with a big smile on your face doing a slow 65mph
