Chuffed to say I ran a new PB at York in the final of NSCC last Sunday.
11.9449 beating my previous best at Shakey of 11.947.

It might only be 2 thousandths of a second but it counts and proves that York is just as good as Shakey for running the numbers.

1/4 mile table updated.

I used a little nitrous on the engine for the first time in the final on Monday and ran 11.6
As I am now leading another class called Hotrod Super Cup I wil be using nitrous to get my time as close to 11.0 as possible as this is the cut off point for this class. Should make for some real good racing as there is another car joining the class next meet that has to detune to run 11.

I ran a 10.61 @ 129.7 last year on the old engine using about 150 bhp of nitrous.
I think I can get to a 10 with maybe only 100 shot this year. We should soon find out.

read the original post.
Been off it apart from 1 run with a very rich 60 shot so probably about 40 bhp.
Will be using more soon and being VERY careful with it

its performing very well and isn't too bad to drive on the road either. It gets ab it shunty at times if the revs drop to 1800 but I think this can be tuned out somewhat. I need to tweak the map in some areas. I think when the car is tuned on the rolling road it requires a touch more throttle for cruising.
