Now I gotta buy a longer trailer just to borrow your car!! lol
I'm not quit sure how that auto pilot thing works though :?

That's really neat and well done.

Where did you get (or how did you make) the labeled heat shrink? That's really neat.
I just use a label gun and clear heat shrink.

Thanks guys !!!

After early April testing, I finally got to race it a few weeks ago. Got rained out at 3 cars, would of really liked to of kept running, car is very good and drive on that day wasnt to shabby either :)

I decided after testing that it was a touch faster then I wanted it to be (7.49 and faster require a hans and 15 suit in nhra) I added a Mono Strut Wing and Swapped from 33.5 rear tires to a 34.5 tire. My plan didnt work out as well as I had hoped but car repeats great !! Went 4.70@149, have yet to run 1/4 but I am affraid its still going to be faster then I want it to be. Weighed in at 1975lbs after a run, the nice part about that is. I have 50lbs (wing and nitrous) that I can unbolt. Here is a few pics of the wing, I really think it set it off !!

Nice!!

Are those boards something you made or did you get them from Randy and Leash Electronics?

I ordered 2 nos timers from Randy and they really clean up the wiring and make it simple.

They are from Digital Delay, one is their Elite Panel Board the other is their Nitrous Relay Board. Being a dealer for them, I've used them on several cars. Very nice stuff :)
