Damn, blown head gasket. That really sucks. I know the heat that day was pretty bad, but if you were running that far off on motor maybe something was already on it's way out?
I noticed you were smoking at the end of the track on your first pass.

I have some work to do before going back to the track, but I will definitely be ready by September. The air should be good then too. I have an appointment next week for a dyno/chip tune at Speedworks, and I am putting the hose on it too before then. I am hoping with a good tune and a 50 shot I can get close to a 125-130 trap, and a solid 10 second e.t. if the track hooks.
It was pretty gooey on Saturday I assume from the heat. I normally 60 ft in the 1.5's and yank both tires. That was with the spray before, and nitrous is harder to leave on than boost in my opinion.

Lemme know when you want to go again.

BTW, sorry again to hear about the car getting ripped off, but there is nothing like a new Cobra to help you get over it.
