His sandbagging ass was running 12's all night to stay in the slow class, then went 11.82 @ 123mph just in time to kick me out of the money. Evidently, he normally runs 11.1x's.

I have a stage 4 and it seems to be holding up quite nice.....Im forging the motor in november so i will probably have to upgrade. The only thing im not a huge fan of is the little bit of chatter. At certain RPM is does it a little bit. Other than that its great/

Yeah, the chatter of the puck type clutches are why I am thinking of the 6.5! My tex zgrip chatters some and won't hold what the new set-up is going to put down!:D

Threadjack = cool. I will be giong from a Monster Stage 3 to a 3.5 soon. Not ever planning on making more than that will hold... at least not in the lifetime of that clutch. Got 20K on mine now with no problems other than a little chatter. I will probably be going with a TVS 2300 after some head/ cam work.

Forget the D1, get a Maggie 122; that whine is orgasmic.

This from MR. gagglefock of nitrous himself.;) By the time I spend $15-1800 on all the nitrous goodies, and then refill the bottle a million times (once a week is $1800/ yr), I could have bought the TVS.

I need to go back to math class..
$1200 for a complete system, 7 usable lbs out of a bottle x 40 weeks a year (cause your not going to be spraying in the winter) x $3 a lb = $840 x 5yrs = $4200 + $1200 for the kit = about the same as a TVS
So in 5 years you will be about even on cost and your not going to pick up the HP / TQ or E.T.s.
Sure you will have it all the time but thats besides the point
