Seems like my car falls flat on its face for the last 1/8 mile. Perhaps it was missing. I tryed another run with juice and my car would not rev past 5500rpm. The next day i took my dizzy apart to find the magnetic pick up and stater full of rust. I sure hope down at sea LvL my car will perform a bit better then at 1700ft. What carb and jets are you using? I have a 750 out of the box holley. I think i maybe need to do some jetting i seem to be running very rich.
How are you leaving on the bottle? Do you have a window switch? Im curious because im still new at this launchin on juice thing! Are you setting there reving and letting the motor use the nitrous while you are watching the tree drop?86bluecobra said:well i think the difference in my time to yours is my launching on the juice at a lower rpm. That day N/A i could not do much better then a 2.0 sixty foot. My car was running way rich and nearly died every launch (bog so hard). So the juice really helped me in the first 60 feet.
not a bad idea! my rev limiter is set at 6200 but i swear it felt like it fell on its face just after crossing the traps86bluecobra said:You said, "I ran out of gear crossing the traps lol!!!!! time to get a 28 inch tire."
Looks like 125mph is just over 6100 rpm with 3.73 gears and a t-5. maybe bump your rev limitor to 6500rpm
thats not a bad idea! But i like my window switch staying active incase i miss a shift86bluecobra said:No i only have a WOT switch and obviously the arming switch. So i have throttle only partially pushed when i launch. Not ideal for consistant rpm launches but seems to work so far. The onl arguement i have for not liking launching with my foot on the floor boards is that then the accelerator pumps have given up there extar fuel shots already. Oh yah and the fact that I have factory axles. So basically I arm the system purge it. then sit at 3500 rpm punch it and juice is on.
It is a good idea to have safety equipment like that so that you don't lose an engine. LOL an Auto eh? I guess you will be quicker with one. Do you drive this car on the street? never as fun with an auto.Modular2v said:thats not a bad idea! But i like my window switch staying active incase i miss a shifti think im going to get a c4 this winter though
Thats what im thinking86bluecobra said:I doubt they would boot you off the track. Usally its just a warning they give. Do it in the time trials and they may not say anything at all to you.
Modular2v said:i pull the tires all motor. . . i did not pull them on the juice! i cant launch on the juice,well i can but, the rev limiter is set at 6200 rpms and the window switch is set to activation range of 3000-6000 rpm with a full throttle switch. so as you can see i really need a 2 step to launch on the sauce. Although i wonder if i launched off the rev limiter, do you think it would bounce back below the 6000 mark activating the nitrous?Thats the color i want to do my car in
Actually I can't remember where i got it from. I ordered all that stuff i think from the performance parts store called MOPAC. The ford local dealership ordered it for me and payed a bit of the cost for me. They give me everything at cost. They kinda sponsor me at our local drag races.Modular2v said:by the way, where did u get your fiberglass hatch from? i also love the no wing look even though i get made fun of for all the time for it!
