PS.what tyres were those times on?
On topspeed runs use gas in 4th & 5th only. For some of the accleration times it was used in 3rd. We have traction in 2nd but its a bit hairy & not worth it. The tyres were 235/45/17 Dunlop DO1J's as I use on the road.
Drove there on them & back home although they had to be replaced soon after
.

Didn't you use BFG's once,how did they get on?
Do you weigh your nitrous bottle before and after a run,if so how many
pounds of gas do you use?
puddy
BFG's Yes just once they were 15" ones & they were ripped to Shreds in a single Launch. Changed the gearing too much & they simply could not cope.
Want to buy 2off 15" MO's that have done only one run.
We have a Timer that tells how many seconds Nitrous is being injected. Test Days have told us when to change the bottle.
Rod
That was at brunters tho?
Do you mean you are trying them again?
puddy
No will not be doing anymore attempts on 15" my big rear brakes are going back on. Mark will attempt a standing mile & try to do 200mph otherwise the standing start times are good enough, expect them only to improve from 160mph on. Not interested in the Qtr, Wrong car , Wrong set-up, unless we run a 10 in the standing mile but thats not likely.
