I believe John G's car is the fastest Gen III powered vehicle at 9.37 @ 147.

Here is a link to a thread with the video:

Not trying to take anything away from your accomplishment (which is very impressive) but I did want to set the record and you signature straight.

I did not want to hijack your post so I started a new thread out of respect.

Matt,

If (and when) you do break it you will probably have a good chance of holding on to it for a while. John is putting the spray on it and will try to run with a power adder for a few months. I can however see him switching back next spring to NA.

Once again, your car definately rocks.

Good Luck!

Bill
