Default 6.53@219....4.26@173, testing sat.
Working on catching Andreas and bringing the record back to the US. These where the first good hits with the new engine and mag 44. We went 6.82 off the trailer then a 6.63 and a 6.53. Last pass on sat was a 6.62 with a poor 1.08 60ft.

I believe there is a ton of potential with this new engine I would not be surprised to see a 6.20. We where just starting to lean on the tune up and it was going the right way.

Congrats. Guys, the video exists, just click on the banner and view it on Youtube's site. He probably accidentally set it to not allowing it to be embedded.

Andreas is cooking too bad it hurt the engine I think he would have went even faster yet. We will work on getting it into the 4.0 and 6.20 range now.

We should have some better video at the LS fest.

Not sure on hp dyno only goes to 1500, but we just use that for baseline tuning and check over.
