Good luck, a chutes not required to you run at least 150 mph and that's not an easy task until your at about 1000 rwhp and the nitrous cars never mph like a Supercharged car. Are you doing a chromoly 8 pt? Have a fun build.

Yah 150mph for the parachute. Not sure I want to start practicing with it at 150mph though. I think it's a good idea to practice early and it looks cool too. Yes a full chromoly cage - 5k out the door with a chute. Going to be a long month of waiting.

Not a bad idea. Give her hell, that Camaro would look really good on a new Sundowner Trailer. I hope you have plans to bring it to the Camaro Fest in Bowling Green, Ky

Ugh 13 hour drive to Camaro Fest. Thanks for the info on the trailers by the way. I’ll be sure to update the thread when the goodies start rolling in. Curious how big of a shot I can run with the dedicated fuel system. Thinking 150 to start.

Did you use the full promax controller kit with the fuel and nitrous pressure sensors? How do you like it so far? I am considering going with this controller aswell. Did you set up the wideband input aswell? Im trying to add as many fail safes as possible when i decide to do the nitrous kit on my set up.

What's it run NA? 10's are achievable with little to no weight reduction and FBO. 5thGen&Beyond ran 10.7's

Yes I use the sensors and no I do not use a wideband. As far as fail safes, doesn't get much more thorough than my kit. I get the car out of the shop Thursday so I will let you know what I think.
