it was low a 900 PSI. We had made a coupl eruns before that so the pressure was down.
What part werent you expecting?
That motor made 400+whp before and my car would be around 330-340whp.
I guess it was about 3 or 3.5 then.
me and zach will run with him on motor, and me on spray.

I wasn't expecting that, what was your bottle pressure at? I hate to say it but he pulled pretty hard on you. Most people think that when you can fit 2 cars between the cars that's getting beat by 2 cars, but actually when the front and back bumpers are even, that's a car. It look like he had you by 3+ when you let off. When you run ZW, are you running him NA while you are on the bottle?

I don't have nearly enough track experience to question 1/8 mile trap speeds.
But I did look at the time in my sig and I was at the 1/8 in 7.822 at 98.43 mph. My next best 1/8 was 8.023 at 96.3 mph. That pass turned into a 12.004 at 123.35 mph (2.162 60 foot).
ORIGINAL: BolognaPony
I know, excuse mode.
The trap is a lil low on that pass and everyone asks why so i figured id explain it before you asked too.
ORIGINAL: BicketyBam
Gotcha.
When I ran my 11.7, I was sitting uncomfortably on my right nut, which hindered my shifting.
ORIGINAL: BolognaPony
On. As it says in my sig... i run way too tall tires, had my plugs gapped wrong and had 750psi in the bottle when i ran that pass.
ORIGINAL: BicketyBam
Is that trap of 86 on or off the juice?
ORIGINAL: BolognaPony
he traps 89-90 in the 1/8th and i trap 86. Its a faster car for sure.
Next up will be me vs Zw99GT on motor and me vs a 315+awhp STI.

98mph is WAY high trap for a 7.8.... ZW99GT on here traps 98-99 and runs 7.1's

I think it was a good race, not bad of a loss at all.. 3 lengths is right.. and I guess I was always thinking of it wrong too... as in 1 car length you can fit a car between you 2.. because anythingwithinyourbody areais just too close to really call one being faster than the other.. redo the race on different days 50 times and it might be back and forth..
one reason I will never get n2o, inconsistency.. would rather be able to keep up or beat guys regularly than worrying bottle isn't on, low pressure, cold.. etc..

I've seen some nasty LT1s so I'm not putting down on you for a loss, I just thought that it would have been much closer but the 900 psi could account for that. Fill the bottle up and run him at 1100psi, you should be right on his *** then. You'll have to do the same when you run Zach as well. Is he going to run you on slicks?

What part werent you expecting?
That motor made 400+whp before and my car would be around 330-340whp.
I guess it was about 3 or 3.5 then.
me and zach will run with him on motor, and me on spray.

BolognaPony just needs to go to a 150 shot and walk us both.
