Prob not myself, got a couple of things i want to sort before i hit the strip again, plus i need to stop anoying the mini boys, some Vtec Minis at MITP were a little put out when I would sit on the line for a second or two and then passed them across the line making them look stationary :lol: especially when i was using my nitrous. :roll:

Thats not very sporting is it... :twisted: :wink:

what approximate time do you run without the laughing gas?

I`m guessing you use a home brewed nitrous kit? what size jets are you currently using?

It is indeed a cracking word!

I`ll take a stab at 0.85mm dia (Had to go look at some old bits i had stored when i looked into making a home made kit-50ish hp jets?)

Surely you can say what the car would run without the gas? just for interest of course. :)

If you have a little search you will find some photgoraphic proof, :lol:

13.2 on an average day 12.9 on a good day without the gas, Car has managed a low 12 with Gas so close to that elusive 11 all on Street tyres Yoko A539 :!:

BUt back on topic anyone else going :?:
