Um, why's your car so slow?

Kidding! Kidding! I kid!

All joking aside- Nice runs... Why are the times and MPH's so vastly different between the two runs?

Because right foot is off the throttle in the faster time compare to the slower one. I was just trying to compare the difference between the last 1/8 mile acceleration between the two so i let off on the faster pull just to barely stay above 10's so I don't get disqualified.

Basically, I gained about 33mph in the last 1/8 from my first run. I ran 100mph in the 1/8 w/o n2o and 113mph in the 1/8 w/ n2o. So we're looking at around 146mph trap speed if I stay in it?

What else would you need to do to your car to legally run sub 10 second passes?

Hey Stevo, what kind of mpg did you figure out you were getting with the Gotham drag car? I remember it was something in the low single digits.........
