1st time out with a let nova and 1st time out in about 3 years = muchos wheelspin! Definately a better time to come with more practice.
Indeed, you can tell you got a bad start, as the terminal speed is high for the time it did.

i was chatting to turbogav about my starts an he asked me if I practice my launches on the road. My reply was that I've never launched my nova before as a let at all!
Looking at the weights, i'm hopeing my new Shell will be light. Because the Acid removed all sound deadning (that tar crap) and underseal. I'm not replacing any of the sound deadning and the underseal is now gravitex.
Be interesting to get it weighted when its all together.

My current Xe Merit weighed in at 520 front, 250 rear with all deadening removed (inc the tar stuff thats stuck down). Not sure how much the underseal would be as i still have that, plus its a Mk2 so its full of seam sealer (aka rust promoter).Originally Posted by krobinson
Im hoping to remove another 50+kg with the FG bonnet, tailgate and Buckets.
Thats not bad. I'll be running a full interior tho. But the sound deadning is the real killer and hopefully it'll keep in the low 900kg's.
2.9 seconds Simps LOL You really shouldn't be afraid of launching it now you have a F28 in it.
Looking through the green novas time slips and Gavs old blue one there really isn't much in it on the 1/8th.
Think he ran 7.9 @ 101 on the 1/8 in his and I run a 8.1 @ 90mph in the green machine, best from his was 11.9 though @ 125 mph LOL, certainly shows how much a let nova puts the power down 1/8 onwards.
I think in Jan we'll re-appear pushing the nitrous a lot more now we have a engine that "should" take it
