I don't want to spoil all the fun, but a few of us just haven't posted our times.

Do you know what his DA was on that run? Alititude/Temp/Humidity,etc?

I can also say he recently reeled in a Minardi F1 at the Vegas track straightaway at over 174 mph.

KA is on her third motor and she has made some runs that I haven't discussed because they simply are not good enough. Alex has seen the current third motor and I'm sure you have seen his comments. There is no bull there.
A few of these motors are in a world all of their own.

As for the event, I wouldn't be too surprised if his times are just good enough to win. I may be wrong.

As for him winning, we're bringing the '57 Chevy, it just got a new motor, a blown 540 that makes 1400hp, we're expecting 8.0's.

And if it does I know it won't turn ............ much. I guess what I am trying to say is a car like Alex's is not a track car but it will run like alot of track cars and they putter around comfortably on the street. Like what he did against the Minardi F1 the other day.For what it is worth I had an old Nova P Stock that turned 185's all day long. It didn't do very well on the street and no it did not have plates.

that is a 993TT.
This will be an interesting year, and our Man Marksi
is going to jump very close to the "head of the class"
very soon!
Congrats to all the cars listed, Craig (amazing car,Sharkey,
a true innovator, and CJV's will be quite interesting WHEN it gets
running--I have complete respect for Rob's work!)

That being said I know that Alex has a fast car and I am sure Chad your car will be a beast if and when it ever gets out of the shop!
But for now the king of the hill for verified times is the EVOMS GT800 at 10.3
