Car went 6.36 with a turbo failure near the end of the run at Indy this weekend. Car will typically back half 50mph. The record should be back in the US very soon.



Here's an earlier pass this weekend


6.teens at 230+ would be nice

Thanks for posting Luke, I think she will fly when we get the 60ft down there and we should go 225+ with no issue.

Did this take CamaroAndreas record? I know he was cutting 1.05 60ft's at one time and he was in the 6's but how far down I can't remember. (I'm getting old)

His latest sig has 6.47 @ 223 so that's why I was wondering.

Either way keep up the good work!

Yes they are his 88s. We are still working on that 6.31 as Andreas set the bar high for us.
