Message	i was just trying to prove that the full 100 rwhp difference that we have, is not substantiated considering the only 2.5 mph difference. i'm just trying to prove that we are making very similar fly wheel power. yes the nos definitely helps the ets, but not the trap speeds. btw I have been competing in a lot of east coast events. I have over 40 passes this season alone, but it is hard competing with the bullish team and alot of the fully built supras we have around here. i'm trying to better the Zs image shawn : what happened on my end. I have little to no experience with autos and how they drive. So, I can't really compare the two. As the day went on with ZHOUNDS car, it got better and better. We were making 1.82 kg/cm, so just about 26psi. That 11.8 run at 126 was a run that I peddeled in first quite a bit. The mph should have been better. Later in the day I bogged a start on a run and the car ran a nice clean run to 129mph. That was with a slow rolling start due to the bog. I'm certain that the mph would have been a bit better if a clean hard start was achieved. That was my fault. As you said your et's are a lot better due to the NOS on the front end. Man if I could only get those 60' times. That would be great. Zo's car made 560 to the wheels just for clarification. : The only thing that has ever bothered me is that you've been pretty secretive with your mods. I've always thought of the Z community at a team. But there was all that drama earlier with you and someone else and people no revealing their mods. I just don't see the reasoning in that. You said similar turbos, well are they Greddy TD-05's? 14, 16 or 18G's? Hybrids? What? There are so many turbo combos out there. In your case it doesn't really matter. You run sick times and that's great. I'd just like to see you out at some big events and represent the Z's. Somebody has to put RX-7.com away. I'm tired of Yallion. (Spelling?) I don't know if any of that helped or confused, I just wanted to ad my thoughts. : Kep up the good runs. And don't be such a secret to your Z folks. : Mike
