Default 1st run on the bottle!! Vid

Wasn't at the track though.. I got tired of waiting to run it at the track and with this Wednesday also looking like a wash I went and found a back country road. Had a little miss at the higher RPMS, not sure why at the moment.. Need to make a few more runs and see if it's consistant, not sure if it was fuel or nitrous related.. People were walking up behind the car and I wanted to get going so left before I got the bottle pressure up to 1000 psi(I was around 750).. Man what a rush, that's all I can say.. I glanced at the speedo it was zooming past 100, my son looked over he said he saw 130 at the end.. Sorry the video quality isn't the best, for some reason when I compress it in movie maker it becomes a little blurry..

Sounds good but...............that looked like one unsafe road to be going 130 on, for real. Drive safe!

Wasn't bad, no driveways, no sidestreets, maybe a little bumpy towards the end.. That's it til the track.. Just couldn't wait any longer...

I have a nostril purge setup, looks awesome with a difuser so it sprays a small cloud instead of a itty bitty jet.

Looks liek she pulls pretty damn hard down low. How much of a pressure drop did you get up top?

Not sure, gauge is on the bottle behind me.. I was fine, until I hit the higher rpms, then I think it flooded out as I launched with only 700 PSI.. So was probably pushing more fuel than nitrous. Once I can get it to the track and get the bottle pressure up to 1000-1050 then we'll see.. I'm new to the nitrous game, so every pass is a learning experience and right now I only have one(pass).
