finely some desent track time tonight. i dont know what changed with the car but i have done nothing to it but drive it and put gas in it. last time i was at the track tha car went 9.4's all night off the bottle. tonight the car went:

run one
1.961 60'
9.139 1/8th
78.75 mph

run two
1.977 60'
9.197 1/8th
78.46 mph

run three
1.981 60'
9.206 1/8th
78.24 mph

i was very suprised to see the first 9.1 et then i was like oh well its a fluke so i ran again after a short cool down and went 9.1 again.

1.90 60's danged sure dont hurt!

good times sir!

an 8.99 pass is roughly equal to a 13.99 so you're knocking on the door on helmet required territory!
congrats

really? i knew there was a few time breaks for needing a helmit then another for a 4 pt roll bar and so on but i was not sure where they were set at. the car has gone 8.93 at 81mph with the 75 shot of spray and they did not say anything to me. that 8.9 pass on the bottle was on one of my 9.4 motor nights so if i would have had the bottle on last thursday i should have gone at least 8.6 on the bottle because i have also stepped up to a 100 shot.

i had a full bottle in the trunk and it was all hooked up and ready to go but i did not have my nitrous plugs in it so i did not want to chance anything. i run autolight 764 with a .065 gap off the bottle and autolight 103 with a .040 gap on the bottle.

at NHRA sanctioned tracks helmets are required at 13.99 or at 100MPH

IHRA tracks are a little different, 8.49 is helmet territory
