I wonder what he runs without the nitrous. I'm not too thrilled about nitrous cars as i Expect them to be fast when running like 200+ shot nitrous.

I've never used nitrous in my life, however I personally think it is smart. If you are trying to get most you possibly can out of your car, using nitrous is a great idea.
I don't know alot about it, but it only seems to make sense to make the best of what your driving, even with a car as fast as John Shepard.

I'm anxious to see what is going to happen to Buschur's old tube chasis Talon now that Shepherd has purchased it.

That's a great 60'. Prostockers are anywhere from .9 to 1.1 60's. |

Re: Shep goes 8.1@177.6mph at ATCO
his 60' on the 8.13 run was a 1.35 and a 1.38 on the 8.14 run. Apparently these are not "good" 60' times for him, he is still having problems launching his car.

To give you an example, I've gone 9.60's @ 138 in a Mustang with a 1.34 60' on a true 10.5 tire and that's not a record by any means. If he could get his first 1/8th mile sorted out...watch out. |
