For the number crunchers of us.

Qualifier 1.05 2.74 4.09 @ 187.30 5.25 6.27 @ 218.18 MPH it layed over around 1100 feet on this pass.

1st round 1.02 2.66 4.09 @ 165.71 5.36 6.43 @ 215.41 as you can see I pedaled it between the 330 and 660. I actually pedaled it a couple times to keep it off the wall. :lol:

cool report, neat detail about having to hold on to the fire suit to keep your foot from whumping the loud pedal. that was some quick thinking.
the police never think it's as funny as i do

I was talking to Danny today. The block and heads are at Brad's. The crank is at Henry's. This is the 1st motor. The 2nd one is in the car as it was going to be at a car show this weekend. That has been canceled due to the fact he might have to evacuate his shop if the levy breaks. The flood peak is supposed to be a few feet over the levy hight. it sounds bad. He has most of the equipment moved and is standing by to move the rest if it floods. :shock:

I am hoping it all turns out OK. I told him,,,,no rest for the wicked,,,,fast guys! :wink: :lol:
