Porsche Enthusiasts Club Forum

Hi All

If anyone is interested in seeing the 928, I will be at SANTAPOD all day on Sunday in the Wizards of Nos display area...

I will be the old guy with the grey hair and the blue race suit with the big Porsche badge on the back

All the best Brett

Hi All

OK....here is what went on at the Pod...

After a couple of teething problems with my piping, where a Nitrous pipe released at 950 psi and I managed to lose the contents of both my 15 lb bottles rather rapidly lol...

I then set it all up again and having refilled with another 30 lbs , I turned on my twin bottle heaters and once pressure was back up at 950 psi , I headed for the fire up lane...

I then got to staging....I rolled it through the water for a rolling burnout under Nitrous power

I shot past the tree ..lol and had to reverse back to stage in the cloud of smoke that I had created...

I then staged and waited for the green....

Green hit the light and I hit the loud pedal....

That when it got really funny lol....

I have no LSD and so I had so much power that my rear left started spinning....

And kept spinning as I headed up the track......1/4 track...STILL SPINNING..

Half track.....STILL SPINNING

3/4 track......STILL SPINNING

Full track....STILL SPINNING

Time was a 17.46 at 94.87 mph.....lol


I have NEVER felt so much power in a street car and obviously my car/Nitrous system is designed for high speed runs....not drag racing...and all I did for the whole run was keep pulling the wheel to the left to try and keep it straight

I did see 7500 revs on the tacho at one stage although I did melt a plug as I went through the timing light at the top end...

The plug gone meant my day was finished (why is it always the LAST one you change out of 8 thats the bad one lol)

I will add 2 pictures of the melted plug...

In total it was a great and relaxing day, got a lot of setting up done and will now move to NGK B9ECS (retracted nose plugs and 2 more heat ranges colder) to save melting any more, I will also alter the fuel/Nitrous ratio to a safer level, lol...

I'm glad you had a good day.

It's a bit late in the day to start thinking about safety.

Hi Sean

lol..i meant safety for the engine not me

All the best Brett

I'm pleased your considering the V8, I thought you might be getting a little nervous about knocking on the pearly gates prematurely

Hi All
