new best 11.50 @ 119mph
hallsville raceway hallsville texas 3/19/05

r/t .515
60' 1.647
1/8 7.390
mph 94.28
1/4 11.504
mph 119.89

the track was hooking great and i ran right after a drag car with big slicks that laid down lots of rubber... 1.647 60'.. the weather was good too.. about 60 with low humidity around 45%.. i ran 11.54 two weeks ago and was hoping for 11.49 because the weather was better this weekend... my best mph is 121mph but that was done in january at 35 deg, but i didnt have drag radials and i spun off the line so the time was not that great.. i have the time slip and dyno sheet with the air fuel ratio for my car and will post them soon.. 496 rwhp 572 ft lbs

Congrats. I emailed you after your last time but did not hear back. Please tell us about your NOS setup and pics of the install would be great. Congrats again on being the fastest E55 there is.

Wasn't me. It's the new guy who is running NOS. He's the fastest I know of for sure.

Derek,

Sorry though it was you...read the post too quickly, you will be there soon. Wonder what NOS shot/system was used. I think I would be too gun shy 025K for a new short block?

How did you launch the car, and what are your mods? Congratulations on a kick-*** timeslip!

I'm assuming you have BFG drag radials?

Do you use a button to engage nos or foot pedal sensor? also do you use a staged box or do you just hit it manually?
