Default 1/8 mile, Vortech & Nitrous times

it was my 1st time I have had it on the track with the S/C and only the 4th time on the track since I have had the car. So don't make to much fun of me

I was not able to hit the nitrous till I was alittle into 2nd, hit it any sooner it just went sideways (that was not fun)

best was a 8.2 @ 93.8 mph

best mph was a 94.8 but had a 2.8 60ft and ran a 9.4 on that run

heres a vid. of some of the better runs

1/4 will be soon I hope, got to work on getting out of the hole and the 1/8 works for that.

But the car is doing good man, thanks for everything and the long hours you put in it. Performance Factory ftw

What tires were you running? And why are you spinning them in 2nd? No offense but 470whp shouldnt spin in 2nd gear-are you heating them up enough? Mad potential though, decent trap.

The tires are 275-60-15 Nitto D.R.s, I got them for the street more then the track. I think I was heating them up enough, was doing about a 5-10 sec burn out.

I'm sure the car has alot more in it, just needs the driver mod
