Yeah . . I was a little disappointed. I think it was tuned too fat, I'm pretty sure I didn't purge the line all the way, and I only had it programmed to spray for 8.8 seconds. I was wondering why I was 1 mph up on Travis at the 1/8 and 1 mph down at the stripe.

I wonder who the moron was who did the tune and programmed the controller? :redface:

Travis beat me by .17 . . . more than a tenth of which was in the 60. I couldn't BUY traction today . . but I also had it ramped too steep (60% .1 seconds into the run).

For my first successful nitrous pass, I guess it wasn't awful . . . but I definitely need to spend some time on the tune.

Thanks guys. The car was a little slower than usual yesterday, and I was having a hard time holding the track. I know there's more in it on the 100 shot with tuning and traction.

But . . . I think the 250 shot is gonna rock!:woot2:

I saw that run, Tad. I thought I saw you ahead of Travis, just before the end. You two are wicked fast! I'm just glad that I was able to hook a little for my runs, yesterday.

I was pulling on him . . but I only had my spray programmed for 8.8 seconds. I might have caught him otherwise.

Here's a better vid with a soundtrack!
