had an OK time. got there around 7:30 7:45 only to wait an hour or whatever it was after someone oiled down the track. 
got one n/a run in. spun. did two runs on the jug. first spun a bunch. second a spun a ton! let out half way through the run. no point in hurting anything. slicks were at 15 psi cold. i wonder if i have to go lower than that??? i hate teh sway on the big end.
very first run on the NX shot .... no bottle heater and its a wet shot GOTS to get a heater!!! hit was honestly pretty weak. probably a 70 shot lol
6.94 @ 99.4 (1.533) - driven to and from the track without changing tires
i cant wait to actually hook like its supposed to! i never spin n/a
learning this new combo is killin me.

ah that makes sense about the oiling. i never put the two together. it was the two brothers that are always out there with fbodys. he put a rod through the block. ouch.
well it is technically a NX 120 shot but thats at 1050 psi. with no warmer at all and not even a full bottle (dynoed a few pulls on this bottle already) it was probably more like a 75 shot or less. you know how wet shots need bottle pressure.
as for spinning, the 60' might look good but i know it spun terribly. my car deadhooks even at sunshine most of the time. usually 1.55-1.56 at sunshine. but its clean and moves out. this one shook the tires hard and i had to really drive my way out out of the 60' (if that makes any sense). i think without a doubt at BMP i can break into the 1.49 or better since n/a i go 1.53 at that track pretty normally. again its just the feel and smoothness of the launch. when it hooks right it just lifts and shoots out. this one felt like i launched on a gravel road!

As far as the LS1 oiling the track, that was my buddy. He broke a rod, crank and some other parts, not a good night for him.
