Cool picture!

1. I must have leant down to pick up a dropped french fry at that moment.
2. Thats because I have incredible traction when starting off in 4th gear.

:D

Also, I see you shaved your rear door handles to reduce aero drag experienced at the high speeds you encounter during the pull. Nice work!

omgwtfbyobbq,

Let me see if I can get this thing to work.

I generally don't change fuel when I run. I've messed around a couple of times with race fuel and toluene/xylene, but I don't believe they make any significant improvements. I usually just stick with 93 octane pump gas.

I have 2 fuel systems- one for the FI (~44PSI) and one for the nitrous which is supplied by a Holley Blue pump (~6PSI).

I have thought about carrying a 1-2 gal fuel cell with race fuel for the nitrous enrichment, but I haven't gotten around to doing that. Maybe in the next year or two. For now it all comes out of the stock tank with a sump.
