I would normally be there running 11.0 but I have a conflict with NA Shootout at Beaver Springs.

They have 10.0, 11.0 and 12.0 at E-town so our 11.50 racers should be looking to go up or down to compete in these.

Wayne, you shouldn't tell anyone you're going. It kills the class

Ooops. I hope I didn't jinx Wayne.

Romeo with a .007 r/t in rd 1 I guess running under the index on a competition single doesn't have any effect?

You gotta love this pic:

Their rules are not as strict as our Corvette rules and no points series either so penalty

That is a very good question. He should not have by ladder figuring. My guess is the numbers on the sheet are not correct

Well there were only two cars running in the 11.0 index today, guy I was running is a very experienced racer and I could not cut a good light I suck on a pro tree .....

Nevertheless this is the first index race that I have participated in this year. The car did what I expected on its first time shot pass running an 11.129 at 120.49 mph.

Second time shot it looks like my nitrous selonoid is not working and no spray kicks in, car runs a disappointing 12.797 at 106.58 mph. Called Julio from Cartek for advice, he suggest that I try and cool the Nitrous selonoid... I wrapped some ice on a small towel place it near the switch.

First qualifier car ran an 11.408 at 116.33 mph

Second qualifier car ran worst at 11.642 at 115.29 mph.

Finals I left before the tree was activated and fouled out.

Thanks go out to Cartek for rejetting the car, I went from a 100 shot to a 150. Installed NANO system and retuned and dynoed the car again.

With Nitrous the cars numbers: Max Torque = 540.4 Max RWHP 498.4

I need help hitting the tree guys any help would be welcomed

See you guys for the 11.50
