For being the worlds fastest NBS pickup, you sure take your time reporting back your times.

I am sure that we will have to wait for awhile before we know the outcome.

no 9's. first run pulled a 10.41. that was about 18psi and a 1.72 60'. didn't hook well at all. 2nd run i decided to leave the nitrous on for the entire run. i turned down the boost a few psi. pic's show what happened.

it broke about 30' out, kyle has a video that will be up later. i pulled a 1.74 60' on this run but like i said it broke 30' out and i coasted to a stop from there. it was pulling really hard












where should i look for good u joints? something super strong? i want to get my 9 sec run in before winter hits just in case i want to start a new project and don't continue with this one. i know i should beef up the rear, front and driveshafts but i might be done turning it up after i get my 9.99 so i dont want to spend that money.

i just went to dennys driveshaft page. they are not working today but from that page i think they can set me up with something strong. they sell a 1350yolk for a "8.5 chevy" not sure if that will fit our rears. it is the same price as a stock one. i am going to see how much a complete set up would be for one of their best drive shafts.
