Thanks everyone.
Again, no downforce or stability mods. Body is completely stock.
Solobaric- I run a staged injection BS3 with dual fuel systems and 16 42lb/hr injectors. 93 octane in the main tank, C16 in the secondary cell. Having all the same size injectors makes it a 50/50 mix.
RyanJ- The Cuda was not there, though I was looking forward to seeing it. I heard that they damaged the motor in testing a few days prior.
quikturbo- Thanks Chris. Hows that bad dog SC coming along?
PSJ- Math works out to 6,800 rpms. Probably would be better off with lower gearing in an attempt for higher speed as it makes peak power at 6,000.

Great run, car looked stable. I wish I would've gone out there to watch, I would love to try to go 200+ mph sometime in the future.
Here's the SVS TT Viper in car video of their 218.95 mph run

Very cool runs!!!
I would love to do that with my car someday... unfortunately it's gonna be built for a little shorter run. We could put a six speed back in Kyle's car and give it a try.

I'll watch the vid at home but that sounds nice...maybe you need to go run the Z-2-Z challenge in conjunction with the Silver State Classic. Quickest time, from zero to 200 to zero will hold the annual trophy and braging rights. Last year no one hit it. You should be able to find an article in hot rod or phr about it? BTW, I plan on doing this @ some point myself (maybe not up that hot though).

Z2Z challenge sounds like fun, but my car doesn't really stop very well.

Dude that's amazing. That's what I like to see!! A car that can not only performs well in the 1320 but also has some awesome top speed as well. All Around Performance and still gets decent fuel mileage. 
Don't get me wrong I appreciate a good 1/4 mile car, but for me a car that does it all well is where it's at.

Jim, that is absolutely sick man!! I almost spit my coffee out right when I read you basically hit 200mph. Unreal.

Does it make a huge difference if your on slicks/DR's/street tires when going that fast in regards to reliability of tire?
