    Cool. I'd definitely love to run him on the bottle if he wasn't already. I (and a few others from that day) found it a little hard to believe he wasn't spraying. Hence the callout, I want to see what he's got when he's running at 100%. Something's always going on with his car. I don't care how strong a cam-only C6 coupe runs, there's no way he'll keep up with me while I'm on the bottle and he's running on motor.

    55mph until whenever works for me, Marshall. Again, if I get my wheels and tires by the time we run, I'll run whatever roll you'd like.

    Come to think of it, he raced Boris on motor and he lost by 1-1.5 cars (if I remember the thread correctly). I raced Boris on motor and lost by .5-1 car also. Unless he found 100rwhp more on his NA retune since then I seriously doubt he was running me on motor.

    Again, it doesn't matter. We can run tonight to settle this if you want.

    1 to 1.5 cars is about 25 hp not a 100 hp and he found a few more hp before the spray, here is an example of 25 hp difference

    Let me know when your car is retuned, Marshall. I filled the bottle at Summit on the way home from Silver Dollar so I'm ready to go.

    bottle on bottle run is highly anticipated.


    Whomever thinks I was on bottle is sadly mistaken. If I hit the bottle on "that" run it would have been one ugly result.:idb:


    Again I dont believe your car was spraying the whole run. Low bottle pressure or something else was happening. With the power I suspect your car to be making you couldnt tell the difference of loss in power?

    I can tell a lost in power in my car on a hot day and thats nothing compared to what you had to be down that day.

    Now that I think about it I was actually behind you and Daniel when you guys did that run - and you all weren't pulling away much - granted you all got the jump but it certainly didn't look like either of you were on spray.

    So Daniel, you may not have been making as much HP as you thought?

    Thank you...........I know I cant hang with him on bottle and me on motor and he doesnt seem to believe me. I think he needs to check his car/himself. You have to be able to tell if your nitrous is on the whole time or not- its a pretty big difference in power.

    ......your very words from a PM in my inbox.
    I don't deny those aren't my words. It doesn't state I said am running a 75 shot, though. That was simply what I was advised. All it shows it I obviously don't take good advise to heart. But then again, I'm kinda finding a reason to build a stroker, lol.

    I was referring to the tuner I normally use. He doesnt like to work during a regular week so I cant imagine a holiday week.


    Had nothing directed to you or your job.
