For these three runs, my 60ft., times were 1.58, 1.54 and another 1.54, respectively. My 330ft., and eighth-mile times for these runs were 4.30/

I actually think there is more in her for the following reasons: (1) Vegas is at a higher elevation than Speedworld; (2) I ran 3 psi less in Vegas than I did at Speedworld a week earlier, with all of my dyno research showing, on average, I can expect about 20 rwhp for every pound of boost; (3) With my high-end ignition misfire fixed, the 145 mph pass at Vegas should produce a trap of 2-3 mph faster in Arizona, even faster at a track like RCR in San Antonio. Only time will tell, I guess. I’m just so happy to get that nine-second, 800-pound gorilla off my back!! There are videos of my car going down the track and on the dyno on
