We had one Porsche that ran 228 in Texas last month and could not break 190 because of traction issues. We had a Lambo hit a higer number before the end of the mile but his rev limiter kept bringing his speed down until he hit the mile. It was not smooth at all and they found a sensor after some research. That was a DLM car and lucky for Randle that Doug was there to assist him.


Doug Levin ran 205mph with his girlfriend in his car at the last event. This time he came just to help out his customers and didn't run anything. Wish I would have been able to come last month but Ivan has another one planned in February and it should be even better.



Damn, looks like the babe on the right was going so fast down the runway that the wind ripped parts of her shorts away,,,

One bike neared the 200 mark with 198 and the others over 190.

IF you do decide to do that please lower the thing. That would be a recipe for disaster
