N2RacingV8's Formula Survives 280 Foot + Wheel Stand
We went to Darlington, SC on Saturday 2/12/11 and had a blast! Car ran its best ever NA run of 10.47 ET at 127.19 MPH on its fifth run of the day.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXET_vAGn6E I then put the nitrous bottle in it and changed the tune. I had also installed a FJO controller that I was looking forward to playing with. I Locked down the front end and went up for a pass and came away with this video! Let me say right off that it was no fun and actually happened before I could even react! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5uiD_8FCAE When the car came down it did not seem to land very hard and was still going straight so since I was on the gas as it was coming down I stayed in it and ran a 10.18 ET at 132.39 MPH! I went back to my pit and checked everything over. Marked the back bumper, front bumper and scraped the headers just a little bit. Everything looked OK so I went out and made another NA pass just to see how the car ran and it ran a 1.41 60' foot with a 10.63 ET at 125.24 MPH with the front end locked down. I did not run it to max RPM between shifts so it seems to be OK. N2 |

Thankfully the car was still going straight when it started coming back down to earth!! All I knew to do was push the go pedal through the floor to soften the landing!

That was an awesome wheelie. I had to replay it a few times. Love the shift while she's in the air.

This little 346 CI F-body sure does! 1.28 60 foot is the best to date!! That is exactly what my wife said as well just before she kicked by butt! Tell me about! It was a ride for sure I am just glad both the car and me made it out of it OK! Here are the time slips first one is my NA 10.47 pass. This is my best all motor pass to date and the second time slip is the wild nitrous pass. Also here is a cool photo the track owner took of my Formula leaving the line on the 10.47 pass! N2 |

Someone asked about my video from SGMP so I thought I would post it. Here is the video of my 9.92 run Saturday 12/11/10 at SGMP! The car stayed down and moved on down the track for sure!
I did not get into the 80's but it was sure fun trying for it!! The car produced several new PB on 125 HP dry nitrous shot with a DA of around +1,200. We had a very good trip for our last one of 2010. No doubt with a - DA it would run in the 80's on the 125 HP jets! Enjoy - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxuJjpjNOW4 N2 |
