With the system setup the way it is now, I have a few options on how or I should say when to activate the system to give the best launch. I have not explored them all, but I'll list them for you.

Since the nitrous system is basically controlled by the WOT switch, it's a matter of choosing when, during the countdown of the tree (three amber tree), to activate the nitrous.

The slowest and safest launch is to go WOT on the last amber or basically at the same time the transbrake is released. You could wire in a relay to control this activation with the transbrake button to get good consistency during launch. If you have a lot of volume in your nitrous system, you'll end up with a soft hit launch until the liquid nitrous begins to flow in ernest from the nozzle.

You can increase the intensity of the launch by going WOT at anytime before the release of the transbrake. The last few runs at the WCN this year, I went WOT on the second amber. It was a very controllable launch. I tested going WOT on the first amber only once. I would not do it again without attaching the wheelie bars to the car. It was amazing. If you've ever seen Scott's truck leave the line, it's kind of like that. Something I'll eventually work myself up to, I'm sure.

Another option involves using another delay box. Go WOT on the first amber and have a delay of your choice programmed into the delay box. Sounds neat, don't it?

Then there's the option of using a controller that would be capable to turn on the nitrous for spooling, turn off during peak cylinder pressures and then turn back on during the last part of the run, past peak torque rpm.
