    Attended Reno 2021 and met Steve Henry and Josh Richling in the pits. They were engaging and kind enough to spend a lot of time explaining the Just SuperSTOL and modifications. STOL Drag is now my favorite event and am thankful for the time they invested to create another STOL Drag fan. Thanks to both men!

      @@SteveHenry BTW, if you're running N2O anyway, you could probably reduce lag by reducing the amount of boost that you're running, then use the N2O system to make up for the lost power. IIRC, you could even use a 2-stage N2O system to give you a little extra when you need a quick boost. You might also look into using an electronic wastegate.
