I found what the problem was this entire time, it was the nitrous solenoid working sometimes, then would stop, then begin working again. So faulty nitrous solenoid has plagued me since my very first day at the track with nitrous.

OH and the best part....
Since it was my first time on a 1/4 track, i had no clue where the beams were, so my first 5 runs i let out early... All my other runs were at 94mph. One time i ran a 13.6 @ 87mph... Yes i know i am moron...
Dont worry i was a virgin to the 1/4 myself and did the same thing.

Very nice times, especially considering the temp and your setup. What I like about the track I usually run at, I can see my time just before I cross the timing tower. It's usually just a big disappointment though haha!

I believe you ran me on that run...your truck runs strong...humidity was over 90% so the air was too thick for any record best..the L were saying they are normally a .5 second faster consistently than they were running friday night...if that the case your 13.34 could be a 12.9 on perfect conditions and my 12.6 could be a 12.1

Here is the run..i believe this is you...need quick time to watch
