Ran a 12.1 @ 110mph and missed 4th gear. Was able to only get that one run in before IDRC cancelled due to rain
:cool: :cool:

Madizm,
Thanks for posting the vid of my run. Feels kind of weird to see my runs on all these sites. I just want to give props to the driver of the Supra. Does anyone know who it is. I think it is the same Supra that ran in the finals against the Skyline at the last import race.

Awesome run Ronin!! If you don't mind me asking, how big of a shot?? I am new to nitrous and would like to spray myself.

Hey Todd, I hope you don't mind the publicity. I just think it's so damn cool!

I don't wanna go the cage route so I guess I'm just searching for 12 flats. Last time up there, they told me I need a drive shaft loop even though I use street tires. I guess the cutoff is 13 flat. Anyway, I think my engine would respond really well to just a 50 shot. Do you guys perfer dry or wet??

I'm running a 60-shot right now. Very nice times with your Cobra. I love those things. I prefer the wet systems. I bit safer for supercharged and turbo rides.

I would go wet. Less chance of going lean. But wet does put an explosive mixture into the intake tract which has had one or two funny but bad instances of ignition. Dry is more likely to go lean if the fuel pressure or injectors can't keep up or aren't used to increase flow, but since nitrous alone isn't explosive there is little risk of intake tract boom. Supposedly both can cause "puddling" and that can be bad too.
Also make sure you use it after intercooler otherwise you will definitely have the only cobra with reverse intercooling. Nitrous boils into gas at - 175 degrees Farenheit. Brrrrrr.

I'd love to hook up with you guys and talk more in depth about this. Anyone going to the Test and Tune day next Wed?? I am, hopefully the weather will cooperate.
