Not a bad weekend at Ford Fest. Had an intercooler problem on saturday, got to 2nd round though, and then today the car was deadly....but I wasn't...lol. here is a breakdown of the runs and for anyone just interested in the n2o pass, its at the bottom.

Saturday - air was between 1000' and 1200', temp 76-82. on the first 2 passes my IC pump shut off at launch and I went through the traps with my IC water temp at160 on the first pass and 200 degree's on the 2nd one. IAT2s were prob in the 160-170 range.

Qualifying pass 2

then after tossing in 2 new fuses bc they were blowing, I found a fray in the wire and replaced it. ran the 3rd pass and the temp still shot up to 140 at the top end. got back to the pit and the pump was on but was air locked...lol

so then I loaded up the nitrous tune, warmed the bottle correctly and went out for a pass. Mind you I cross the traps OFF the bottle 6600-6700 as it is. So I stayed in it as long as I felt comfortable which was just past the 1000' mark. I was around 6800 (limiter at 7000) and I shut the nitrous off but stayed on the gas and the car just kind of stayed at that speed, stopped pulling. here is the whole run

60 - 1.36
330 - 3.94

1000 - 8.01
