Default New pass with nitrous

Alright guys just wanted a bit of input I see so many people going faster times but trapping speed way under mine and there 60's aren't much better. It was very humid out I'm not sure on what out da is or sea level or what but track is Jackson south carolina on ga border. Just installed nos wet kit with 100 shot. All on nitto 555 street tires.

Best motor pass is 13.1 at 109 2.08 60ft very nice night cool weather

Best nitrous pass was 2.05 60ft 1/8 8.21 at 91 1/4 was12.43 at 116.8 windy night rained that day


Mods are twin filter intake and muffler and cat delete center force dyad clutch Bottle pressure at 950psi. Are these times consistent for a 98 c5 with 138000 miles? I trap better then alot of people yet I'm reading people hitting 11s bone stock on a 100 shot. Also it's a m6.

If your motor and exhaust are stock that sounds about right. Remember reading about the new 410hp mustangs and it doing 12.80s from road and track mag. .6 is not a bad drop over a stock motor. 4.11's will drop you into the 11.00s. About half a second there.
Nice pass....
