The results are not linear when talking about the diameter in a hole. Steve's site showed two charts. One for trashcan solenoid and one for a standard R. This is with his plate.
The proper way to calculate is with your bottle on scales and is rated in lbs per hour.
Power is made with fuel not nitrous. I do not care to share my tune ups with you.

It was a no time displayed race. I really liked how the time slips showed only the reaction time.
News is we ran well. Car had too much bite. Kept wandering left in the long wheelstands. Then was difficult to drive on top. Went up on tire pressure sat morning which added to the wheel stands. Kept sneaking up on the preload. Went up another quarter lb. for first round after almost loosing the car. Car went left attempted to pedal and car bounced bad deploying the chute. Had the car to beat and double 0'ed the tree.
Changed 4-link today. Will run a lot more pressure now that we have a better idea with the tires. Mid teens in 60ft should be very easy.

Well this is Round two for me.
Farmington,NC Oct. 10&11.
Car should be a lot more manageable. Or at least it has been. We tried my ole PTC converter that posted my best passes in '05 but it is very tight and very hard to stage with this combo. Worked on the carb but had to run ignition timing higher. Called Kenny at PTC and he said he had something better.Don't know yet but it is much easier to stage and he says it will be just as tight in high gear.
Wish me luck
Leon

Hope it goes better than the race they attempted to do at Darlington back in May...they had about 3 cars show up.
No one around here wants to run on an unprepped surface...including me. Hardly a test of who has the baddest "street car".
Any of the cars around this area that are set up to run on an unprepped surface will not go to the track, let alone run eliminations. They are grudge cars.
I get what they are doing...playing off the TV show and all. That's cool and I hope it does well.
We have KOTS up here, one show in the spring and one in the fall. They have a great turn out, extremely fast cars, and 15k payout to win.
They had to limit the gangster class to 1/8 mile since the cars were seeing the walls, very intense to watch.
Good luck Leon!!
No. Only Seniors is 1/8 mile. Jr and gangster still 1/4. A few of my friends have raced it and won it, look for a Duster in next years event, which will only be one weekend.
It's a different scene no doubt but very fun and VERY REAL! Good luck Leon
