Yeah, the throttle position is kicking my butt, too. Supposedly Matt @ FSP figure it out for nitrous, but his technique didn't work on my car. You may want to pick his brains and see if you can help you figure it out. ETMX163 has been cutting 1.6 60' with a 140 shot after Matt worked on his. My best has been a 1.78; my old LLT did better than that, LOL.

The only reason I'm posting over here is because no one in the Cadillac world seems to be sprayin the LFX except for me. But I appreciate the feedback and info from you guys.

That's a good run there, good R/T also.

I haven't weighed it but it should be around 3400lbs according to the specs on the car. The ATS weighs between 33 somethin and 3500lbs depending on options

I am excited for some cooler weather though. Last night was still in the 80's and humid as hell. So hopefully some better numbers when it cools off a little

That thing is moving GREAT RUNS!!. Looks like back around 80 for the temps next weekend. So it looks like my runs at MIR will need to wait still.
I'm at full weight, nothing removed and I'm not a little guy either (235). I hit my spray at 3000 RPMs for almost 148 runs now. Good luck get that 11:xx ET that would be SWEET!!!! What are your two systems set at ( power levels )?

The first stage was a 60 shot coming on at 2400rpm and second stage was a 75 shot coming on at 3000rpm. I did some test runs today and set first stage to a 50 shot and came on at 2100rpm and the data log was really clean. So next trip out I will launch on a 50 shot followed by a 100 shot around 2800rpm and see how it goes. Should really help the 60ft

Would this help with getting your throttle to 100 percent alot faster? The people that have it on here seem to love it.
