new pb as well
 
video is here yay http://s222.photobucket.com/albums/d...nt=n2orun2.flv

only had 2 runs

1st run on the 100shot spraying only in 2,3,4 gear.

didnt like my launch at all. normally its in the 1.6's

shifting wasnt bad, but not my fastest. i just wanted to get the car down the track.


60' 1.77

330' 4.877

1/8 7.393 @ 98.62 mph

1,000' 9.54

1/4 11.358 @ 125.40 mph

On my 2nd and final run of the day, i put in the 125hp jets and planned on spraying out of the hole. only one problem- i flipped the cover of my arming switch up but didnt flip the switch on :(

this resulted in a piss poor 60' and a crappy time
and im still kicking myself over it. and i feel so bad because i told the guys my plan and they all came running over to catch me either pulling a wheel(s) and/or hitting 10's, or breaking something. and i did none of the above

normally N/A i run 29 degrees of timing, for the n2o pass it was down to 24 degrees to be safe

1.88 60'

12.15 @ 116.60mph

a few people told me thats not bad for having my timing set at 24* lol if i was to run N/A yesterday i have no doubt in my mind that i wouldve pulled off a 11.70 @ 117+ mph and 10's on the 100-125 shot spraying out of the hole

theres always next year!

sweetbmxrider 12-15-2008 03:15 PM

ah! freakin switch! still a nice pass

NJ346 12-15-2008 03:17 PM

damn Ron, I plan on hitting the track more often and maybe I'll start taking risks and doing some 6K launches on my 10 bolt. I wish I could get a 12.15.

98tadriver 12-15-2008 03:19 PM

Get some slicks and a lil weight reduction :)

Ehh, next year I will go a little crazy. I'll find a way into the 11's whether it takes some spray. 11's with stock internals will make me happy.

Hey Ron I'm pretty sure I got your runs on Brian's camcorder as well! Car looked good doing its thing though! Make sure you buy some prints!

Ron, we felt bad for you but s**t happens.

Blackbirdws6 12-15-2008 08:27 PM

I've done the same and forgot to flip the switch and wondered why the car didn't have the kick in the ass it normally does. Would have been nice to have a few more opportunities to run that day than 2! There certainly is always next year. Nice meeting you btw.

Jersey_TA 12-16-2008 02:29 AM

Congrats on the new best time Ron!!!!! There's always next year man. I know I can't wait :)

DadsZ28 12-16-2008 05:35 AM

Congrats Ron,sorry I couldn't make it there sunday, sounds like it was too crowded to get alot of passes in to play with the spray. Hmmmmmm......spray......oooooo that's so tempting for next year,ut oh,ha ha!:mrgreen:

98tadriver 12-16-2008 03:33 PM

thanks guys, and it was nice meeting you all too. i put like 5 more names to the faces. the track was definately crowded, probably wouldntve been so bad if people didnt oil down the track and wreck lol

BarneyMobile 12-16-2008 04:37 PM

Congrats again Ron!! Wish I could have been there but I was alittle hung over from the night before.
