well i took the turbo coupe to the fri night tnt, first time on the track since the big race on the 11th i got 3 passes in that day with a best et of 10.64, and best speed 129. with the nitrous control set to shut off @5000 rpms ,launch @ 5300. no spray down the track.
i came home and removed over 100 lbs of stuff from the car, free horsepower. also i set the nitrous control to leave the spray on until 6500rpms.
so off to the track, i'm surprised at the cars street manners, ez enough to drive even in traffic i live 15 miles from the track and i drive the car there and back, as well as other excursions.
at the track it launched hard and went straight, it felt like it lifted the front left wheel! ran hard all the way down. crossed the finish line @7400 rpms. 60' time 1.39 330' 4.086 1\8 mi 6.394 1\8 mph 106.13 1\4 mi et 10.154 1\4 mi mph 132.35 coming down return road i felt my chest jumping and got a little short of breath my a-fib had kicked in, well crap i'm done for the night.
i'm confident the dirty bird will run a high 9.xx next time out. and my PIMP is a big part of making this all happen,thanks Wes and Shannon.

Nice! How big of a shot of spray is it?
This has got to be the least amount of passes and most drama free trip to mid 10's and then low 10's anyone with a 2.3T has ever done. Very good to see this thing doing so well, congrats!

Yeah, video could use a little work lol. Looks like it left hard though. What were the incremental times down the track?

Crap, nevermind lol. 1.39 60 ft is certainly leaving pretty hard.
