Same here, I had nothing to do and was going to go but the rain never stopped until around 7 so I thought they called it an early day.

12.1 is a damn good time, even for a 100-shot. Your 88mph trap at the 1/8 is evident of some decent power though! I run 86mph at the 1/8.

Well used my nitrous on the track for the first time tonight and they were not all that good of runs. For some reason in my nitrous tune my car keeps dying like 100' to go my car just goes dead and I have to restart it every time.

1st pass
60' - 2.2
1/8 - 8.32
MPH - 88.45

2nd pass

60' - 2.18
1/8 - 8.41
MPH - 88.1

The other was on motor alone

60' - 1.91
1/8 - 8.52
MPH - 81

You have 2mph on me, I couldnt get traction 2.4 60' I went 9.098 @ 86.13 on a 100 shot. I would say you are pretty close to where you should be... but your last run doesnt make any sense to me, you trap 7mph less and only lose a tenth?
way better 60' on the last pass, ist i all about getting out of the hole

12.1 is awfully good in the 1/4 for a 1/8th in the mid 8s for a nitrous car. they tend to pull a lot harder in the first 1/8th, than the last 1/8th.

26mph gain in the last 1/8th is a lot for a car with 353rwhp. my car gains about 25mph, and thats with 410rwhp, and probably lighter thans yours.

are you going from 8.3 to a 12.1 though?

my 1/8 was 7.84 @ 95.7mph
my 1/4 was 12.03 @ 118.5mph

no shiftingin the last 1/8 sonothing really to do but go along for the ride (i shift to 4th at 94mph on that run) so i gained just under 23mph.

not sayin it cant be done, but its just odd to run half a second slower in the 1/8th than me with a nitrous car, but then catch me in the end, with less power, and more weight.

edit: i just assume more weight, since my car stock is 3350ish, and ive shaved quite a bit (150lbs or so)
