I plan on going and observing. If I do, I'll gladly be the official 6speeder-waterboy

I should be there... Hoping to break the 200mph barrier on my lower boost setting. I don't think I'll run my new setup on high boost for the mile... Probably is going to be way to much stress on the bottom end at those power levels.

Awesome, I'm glad you're coming. Chris, why would you add more power than the motor can handle. Are you doing a build later?

I'll run the higher boost levels in the 1/4 and 60-130, but the mile requires so much stress on the motor I wouldn't want to risk it. I was told by one of the builders/testers of the kit that 800rwhp should be a walk in the park. We'll see if the heads/cams can flow that much.

HH6 says go for it.

HH6 said we should go ahead and plan on going. I will do a few things in preparation for having evoms flash my car while I am there and make a run for whatever I can get out of the car. I would be happy as hell to break 180. I am looking forward to it.

I will need to fix that pesky rear wing before then though. I will get the suggestions you made taken care of, Joe. I think that will be pushing the limit of what I can get done. I will get the exhaust fixed next week after it gets here and if this new mechanic turns out to be good I will have him do the billet diverter valves as well. Thanks again.

That doesn't sound like a firm commitment.
