Exclamation ***LMR 7.24 @ 209mph Video***

Just got back to the shop. Man was it a great weekend. This LSX shootout ran 10 times smoother than the last event. I want to start by thanking my crew for getting this car to start performing to its potential. We have been fighting this car the past 3 weeks in a row. Its such a relief to finally get it to make full hits under power. Josh, Joe, and Robert are the ****!

Late Model Engines prepped us one bad *** LSX engine. We made 40lbs of boost and didnt even come close to lifting the cylinder heads. Hats off to Callies for making us a crankshaft that can handle this kind of power at the higher rpm levels. The madman suspension on this car kept it very consistent once we got the right tune up in it(thanks brian). Burkhart chassis hooked us up with a great K-member and a-arms(thanks chuck). Also to Sebastian at NLR for building such a great boost controller. Century Transmission from houston tx built our powerglide that held 2600hp in a 3400+lb car(thanks mike)

We will take a few weeks off and start testing again. Once we start bringing in the power quicker to run harder to the 330, this car is going to back door something CrAzY!!!
