Even if you only cut a moderate 2.0x 60' it would put you in the 13's no problem.That mph is good for solid mid-high 13's Congrats on the times and get those drag radials and do work!

Yep congrats on the times. Like I had said earlier, I had major problems hooking, which gave me high MPH, but lowsy 1/4 times.

Also, are you launching on the bottle?

Get some drag radials, and you'll see 13s like nothing. The power is there, the traction isn't.

i was launching off the bottle then i tried it once and just spun all 1st. Then the one where i got the 2.2 60ft i lauched at 3ksprayed a bit then dipped the rpms to about 2800 so it had no time to really bog of the spray.

spray on the 6er feels like uber vtec yo lol it's fast, I ran faster than 2 different 5 speed Gt new edges

lol also i'm through my first bottle already didn't even last 5 days lol i used it a lot this first week multiple times on the street giving rides and 6 full passes on the track. Also I ran a 350z with mods with a bottle almost gone had about 700lbs in it and i had him till 80 then another and he pulled on me but then i only had 450lbs in it when done.

Be careful on your pressure dude.. too low is as bad as too much..

I really would hate to see you **** your motor like I did mine..

Manual GT will be faster every time if they can drive the car. And every time I go to the track its amazing how many people can not drive and go to the track. And ++ on the spraying with super low bottle pressure. Its flowing way to much fuel for the little bit of nitrous getting into the motor. I must say thats the longest I have ever heard of someones first bottle lasting. Most people kill theirs in a day or few hours once they first hook it up lol.

900 PSI if you're having issue getting up to 900 then invest in a heater.

1100 PSI MAX you dont want all that pressure hitting those solenoids, it may cause them to stay open.

Just be careful man, I blew mine on a 75 shot with stock internals, and 99.9% of the time I was safe about it. Its that .1% that killed me. I am fortunate enough to have the money to rebuild it and do some big work, some others aren't that lucky. I'd hate to see someone lose their car because the cost to rebuild.

Invest in some drag radials, they'll help you quite a bit with hooking. Spikes had decent success with the radials and the bottle.

Idk if you have or not, but I'd make passes off the bottle, and get your launch just right. It seems that is where I lost my 1/4 times is the 60. Right toward the end of the year I got better with it, but without the tires, its very difficult.
