Art blew a tire at 200...he is fine, car is OK, tire might not be so good.
Topgun ran 202.5
ttboost 195
Atomic Z 189+
Some crazy guy on a bike 255 or so...

The day ended with a Mustang carbeque shooting flames down the track...
One more run for Tom and I tomorrow and it is a wrap...

guy came to my RV to look at the photos and said there were zero problems with the car during the run and shutdown. I'm sure they will find the issue in the morning.

I'm done guys car is on the trailer headed home. I will dyno the car on identical settings this week and fulfill my promise on that end. I ran. Two more times today 199.14 into a slight wind and 200.5 on the second which I can only imagine was in what was as close as possible to no wind. Vbox said 201.1 ..... 0-186 was 21.45 ..... 60-130 was 6.25. All the supporting data will be posted ASAP. I have in car video of my last 200 run.

All that aside I can't speak highly enough of the 6speeders I met. Kev, Tom, Joe, the Mikes, Art, Betim, Rob, Marty, Eric and everyone else was great. Definitely a great weekend and I am very happy how my car performed. Hope to see more of you in March. Good to see all the Houston peeps today too. Everyone's support and praise was greatly appreciated.

264 on a bike? Talking about ballsy. I'll bet the guy didn't want to wear leathers or a helmet, but was forced to. And I thought Joe was crazy when he told me he did 230+ in a 911. Stay safe out there guys, and post video soon.
