I was talking to some of my buddys,and they asked me.How come there is not some injected nitro pro mod cars out there?
I remember a few years back,there was talk about some one trying one out.I think it was Randy Lindamoud (sp) son of the Color Me Gone race cars fame.I know now that the nitro is getting hard to get and expensive.
Anyone have a Idea on this subject!!!!

He ran that Nitro Coupe class in the 90"s. But he had one of the magical hydrometer's he pulled off the record before they pulled the plug on the class.

I've been dreaming of the day myself.
Put a 5.20 @ 280 set up in a door car & hang on baby.

Bill was running nitro, but he still had a blower.

im surprised adrl hasnt seen more of this... there was some talk that guys in EXTREME were running nitrous with the blowers... but fuck it, i would, 100 shot, on a 14.71 blower, sucking in nitro.... just pray nothing goes wrong

Don't need a blower with 98%. Somebody just do it already!!!

I read someplace that Dave Hirata was considering it or something like that. Their A/FD runs decent.

Damn you're right, should have read it better. He did write injected.

I know a Guy that has an AFD and an Outlaw 10.5 car....

Wonder how long before he tries to put the two together

 

[speedude]

Yeah Hirata has been thinking about it.

Heard that around here somewhere also. Can't wait.

Dave has the perfect test vehicle for it..... He has a 1st Gen Camaro that would fit one of his nitro motors... Of course, I highly doubt an injected motor would like having a converter behind it....

I always wondered why Top Alcohol Funny Car doesn't have injected cars like the TA Dragster class.

An A/F plant in a Pro Mod would be tits. SOMEBODY'S gotta have the money and ballz to pull it off????

Dont let me win the lotto..... Cause I'd do it.....

That's actually one of my 1st thoughts also. I would have 5 Pro-Mods, with 5 combo's.
We're way up on the lotto tues. also. Getting some tomorrow.

There was a mustang funny car a few years back with an injected nitro engine... I believe it was sponsored by sherwin williams paint company. I remember seeing it at the IHRA Nationals in Epping around 2001

That was Scott Weis. He set the record and the combination was promptly outlawed.:smt093
