yea, I did, I was skert of blowing it again so first two passes were weak, 12.7 @97mph, then a 12.0 @97 mph, on those two runs I was letting off in 3rd and basically coasting through in 4th, third run I got a little braver and ran an 11.7 @114 letting off in 4th well before the traps/coasted through and then the 4th run I gave a little more effort, short shifted 1st and 2nd so as to not max those gears out then gave it heck in third and hit 4th hard and half way through 4th I lifted for a brief second then said what the heck...got back on it and ran an 11.5 @121 mph.......None of the passes were full out run the **** out of each gear as the whole injector thing has me paranoid I think if I were to max every gear out this thing should pull at least 123+mph......but I can at least say, I drove it home...lol It pulls hard and strong that's for sure.......for now I'm gonna leave it as is and not hit the track again with it until I fix the fuel/inj issue....that in itself is gonna take some deciding what to do/route to take.......I'm gonna try and post some vids tonight good thing to was after each run I checked the Meth bottle and it didn't use as much as I HAD THOUGHT IT WOULD, so I'm very pleased with that and for street driving it'll have plenty enough without constant refills

1/8 mile was 97mph, I was running my nt05r's they were hooking okay 1.6 to a pitiful 2.0 . thing is later in the morning they sprayed the track with sticky and drug it and I spun worse, went from a 1.6 to a 1.9 60ft.
