ehh..what a crappy day at the track today..ended up ok thanks to a my buddy Noyzee so I guess I'm over it.
took my time this morning going over the nitrous setup again. undid the feed line and hit the gas, juice comes out. hop in the car to get in line...dead battery. jump pack the car to the lanes, get up 4 cars away from the burnout box and the temp guage is rising...210..215...220....rev it up for a minute to circulate the coolant...225....hop out and check the e-fan and its on...back in the car...230...shut it down...WTF?!?!? push it back to the trailer (thanks Jimmy) and open her up. Poured five 20oz bottles of water into it and fired it back up...seems ok. Get out to the track..burnout...stage...launch....ALL over the place...1.69 60'...BLAH! to a 10.89@126 on the nitrous tune but...obviously no nitrous. let the car cool to Dragway standards (2.5hr wait...boo) and my buddy Noyzee staged me and set me up on the groove. BAM...1.47 60' to a 10.76 @ 126.10 on the motor tune. temp and weather conditions today were the same as when I went 10.98@125 with the 6 speed. So I lose 30rwhp going to an auto and I gain 2 tenths and 1mph....ok....thanks!
1.47 4.39 6.85@96.18 8.97 10.76@126.10

Jake, it was nice meeting you yesterday. I didn't get to see you run your car but I'm glad that you finally did get to run it. Later on during the day, I walked over but you weren't around. I had my 12 year old daughter with me and we scoped out your car. I'm impressed! She loved your video camera on the roll bar and told me that I need one of those too. I asked her how her and her sister would get into the backseat if I had one and she didn't have an answer! Oh well, maybe I could rig something up to my dashboard.
