[QUOTE=Outkast]15 psi exactly. I had a full tank of gas at the first run and 3/4 tank by the last one. As usual I was not doing the burnouts too well which resulted in bad wheel hop on many runs and a little sideways action in 2nd. I am happy with the times but I think the consistent 124 mph trap indicates that the car is better than the driver. I was running C16 all night.QUOTE]

OUTSTANDING - the trap speeds are awesome too.
Your car is making more power than you think.

Where'd you get the full tank of C-16?
---------------------------------------------------------

Phil - yeah - some C-16 is cheap insurance for an unsure tune.
Hope you are up and running soon.

I went to the VP gas station in Ft. Lauderdale in the early afternoon and purchased three 5 gallon metal containers full of the blue juice. They ran just under $60 each. I poured in 1 of them before heading to the track, and the rest when I got there. I wanted to get the mix of leftover 93 and the C16 going way before I got to the track, and it seemed to work ok. The exhaust was smelling good by the time I got there, and then the pure stuff went in.

hey roland thanks for helping me fix my boost problem by the way. I think next time we do this should be sometime during Nov, so it will be cooler. I just got back from NOPI and it sucks as. there was less than 20 cars that showed up. The races makes it worthy though. One of the Drag RX7 pop a motor and i never got a chance to see it run. A second Gen runed 8.50. Thanks to the NOPI girls it made the event so much better. Seing em in der bikinis and them camel toes owww.

Well, I created the movie in Nero Vision Express, it looked really good, and the camcorder is top of the line too, but when I exported the file for e-mail and tried to watch it in Windows Media Player, it looked crappy (enjoyable but looks like it was recorded on a cheap camcorder). The bigger problem is to find the best way to share it. It's not a humongous file, I tried Putfile and it's not working right now, and the movie is currently being uploaded to Megaupload.com and Yousendit.com. That should provide me with two links for it in a while. I know Vosko could host it and people would be able to download it fast, but I have to e-mail it to him right?

Ok, I just watched it on my wife's laptop in WMP - looks good!
It's 7 minutes long and captures the good moments we all had, I like it. Directfreak, help me share it. Is it possible for me to mail this thing? It's like 68.4 MB.

As soon as anyone downloads and watches it please let me know. It was taking me only several minutes to download it myself. I know that after a certain amount of downloads I have to refresh it, and also the more people are downloading it at the same time, the slower it is. On both of the sites you will have to click on one more thing to start the download, it is pretty self explanatory.

I like the video, but it is really small. When I enlarge it in WMP, it's really blurry.

The way I made the file it's not supposed to be small and blurry. It's only because I exported it for e-mail. If I just save my project as a regular file, and then upload it, it should be clear but possibly larger. I'm going to do it right now.

After my first 11 sec pass I was told that I only need a jacket so far, because cage starts at 11.49, exactly as you said. I was happy because it seemed like they were going to let me get away with not having the jacket, I promised to buy it from them. Then when I ran 11s four more times, they came and told me not to run any more tonight, and don't even think about coming to Nopi or any time soon until I get:

5 point harness
5 point cage
jacket

The guys on the golf cart were the 2 usual guys that tech us, the tall one with the attitude and white hair, and the one with the glasses and beard. There were 2 more guys with them too. The guys that came running up to me after my run told the track officials that I only need a roll cage if I am in the low 11s, and the guy said that now I am "well in the 11s" and I need the stuff. I don't know if it's because of the trap speed. Oh well.

I am happy that you like it. Working on a better quality clearer version right now. It seems like soon I will be able to upload the same video much less blurry without increasing in file size.
