Dave,
Welcome back to the 48. 👍
The nitrous is a progressive.
30% to 100% at the 60 foot.
The Solenoids chatter until they fully open. 👍

D,
No main saddles machined.
I did modified the oil cavity so that that oil is pumped into the back of the block as well as the front. Cylinder #4 was always the last to get oil and I had spun a couple of rod bearing. That problem is no more. 👍
450hp atw's should put me in the 10's. 🙂

Dave, are You back in Washington?

D, some say I have the fastest carbonated Nissan 4 cylinder motor in the world. Lol
Yes, all the cars are running fuel injection. Except mine.
I debating upping the nitrous and pushing my car into the 10's.
11.19 is pretty darn close. 👍
Currently running a 160hp shot.
The pistons and rods are rated for 1000hp. Im guessing I'm close to 400hp at the moment.
It's my crank I'm worried about. Weakest point on the car.
Transmission is rated at 700hp and the rear-end probably that as well.
So I kind of do have some room to play with. 👍
Looking at the schedule for May now.
Should be an Awesome race year. 🙂

Yesterday's Import Face Off at Pacific Raceways in Kent, Washington was a success of some sort.
Placed 2nd in the 11.50 Index Class.
Ended up breaking out on a 11.34 run. Can't complain when your car is running great. 👍
My fastest time of the day and of all time was a 11.19 at 118 mph.
Joe's Bug broke a drive line cage but he was able to fix it before his next run but ran into other issues.
John's White Skyline ran in the Bracket Class and was eliminated in the 3rd round.
All in all, not a bad day with 5 runs total. 👍

Vacationing in Victoria, BC and spotted this right hand drive
1200 from 2 blocks away.
Thanks Carson for the chat. He did mention that his buddy has a sedan on the island as well.
It's fun to talk 1200 stuff. 👍

Nice!! I should have asked you your top speed as well.
Do you run a A12 or A15?

What's your top speed on the straight-a-ways?

Sunday was the Season Opener for me at Import Face Off at Pacific Raceways in Kent, Washington.
Nothing new on the car so it sat all winter in the garage. Fired it up and loaded it up.
Ran the car in the 11.50 Index and was able to beat Crazy Joe's VW Bug in the Quarter Finals with a 11.511 time.
Ended up taking 2nd Place.
Car ran great with no issues.
Will be checking the track schedules for more events. 👍

Nice Work!! 👍

Car and driver the bug weighs 1650. My car 2350.
But my powerglide transmission and Ford 8.8 rear-end make up most of the weight of my car.
I've tuned my car to 11.50.
My nitrous control launches me at 40% off the line to 100% at the 60 foot. I could probably bump it to 60-70%.
I'll be heads up with him in Wooburn this October.
Let's see what happens. 😃

Raced at Import Face Off this past Sunday.
Car ran great as always.
Although I didn't take home the trophy, I had a awesome time. 🙂
My buddy Joe runs a VW Bug 2300cc all motor (no nitrous).
It's a crazy car that runs in the 10's but can't compete with the big boy imports so he runs in the 11.50 class with me.
Got my car to run an 11.62 but Joe is a veteran at sand bagging so it's hard to beat that.
He took home the trophy running a 11.52. He's a good friend and we help each other at the track.
Here's a video of us heads up. 🙂
