Went and ordered 6 foggers today and a couple solenoids,plus a 4.30 spool set.thought about going to Redding to try it out but I allready have plans to crew at Bonneville that weekend.Will bee going with a 60 shot for the B nitrous record,and then might step it up to 75 to try for the A nitrous et record.Dont think the A nitrous mph record is doable for me.Yea I am a record whore.Guzzi Mark

Go for it Mark!! :D

I love following your very cool exploits.

Congrats on the three Gas records!

Next is Nitrous (if it lives :shock: )...

Then I can see you gettin' some type of Bamboozler parts and goin' for the Unlimited records too! :D

From what I hear, Alcohol is tasty too... :wink:

I think a 4.30:1 will be to much gear.

Yeah, I was thinking it'll probably be fast enough to want 4.10s. I used to have a DOS based racing program to calculate this kind of stuff. I guess I could do the weight/power calculations and look up the new MPH in my Direct Connection Chassis Book and do it that way.

So long as this new "Go Go Juice" doesn't blow sumthin' up or cause you to become so addicted to it that nothing else will do,...

I can see you claiming right about 9 records! :shock:

A, B and C records in Gas, Nitrous and then Alcohol...

Seymour is surely planning and scheming in his secret lab to take back the A Gas record...

A long shot that I will be in a position to compete with you for any of the A/B Gas/Alcohol records...

We haven't heard word back yet from Mike Jeffrey about you taking his C/Gas records...

Go Mark Go!! :D
