Yes it is true and the video is uploading on Youtube as I type!
It has been a long road and the people to thank is endless. From my wife Steph to Turbo Tech to Nitro Daves and Lloyd Elliot I could not name them all!
This has been coming for a while and I have been a Brides maid far to many times. I Blew up THREE converters last year. So I figured I would step up. I sent one to a VERY well known Converter guy...and after Seven months got the same un-stalled converter back. I was just at my Witt's end! A Friend(Arron, Legends Racing) Gave me a broken 8in and I sent it to A-1 converters. I sent them dyno's and told them what I wanted. They NAILED IT!!! For the first time in three years I got to make a FULL Nitrous pass through the trapps!
It took a few tries setting the ramp in the box. For this pass I set a wave to cover the long N2O lines and tapper to keep the tires hooked. She came out hard and shook the tires(low pressure I am sure) past the 60ft moving to 1.43. I snagged the 1-2 shift perfect but was on the limiter for the 2-3 shift.
I was just sure it was going to be another 10.1xx pass and was pretty upset till she handed me my time slip!!
