    I think we need to remember theres still that Tiger that lurks behind the scenes. Just like in this picture they are having a hi-level strategy meeting. :-)

      So I guess if it only use 4000 to beat Strega then it doesn't need the other 800 or the full load of nitrous?

            So the nitrous system is still operational? How long does a full load last or does that vary?

              It is now.

              Maybe half a race, but you would never need that long.

                I'm with Doc.129 and the others who chimed in. I'm just super happy that we'll have the races. Let's all hope and pray for a safe race week and hope for a wonderful and safe Gold. Been way to long for a gold Race to cap Sunday. Talk to all your friends and buds and get them out this year, we need the biggest turnout ever. RENO NEEDS US, AND WE NEED RENO!
