I did not know you made 135+. I had you at a best of 134. It would be good to know your actual weight so you knew where you stood power wise.

good to know, but not essential, same as engine dyno. my engine builder buddy is getting an engine dyno soon, so we might see the real numbers.

To me, the real numbers are the track numbers. Dyno's not so much. I do see a serious problem in that picture though. The driver is on the wrong side! That has got to be worth a half of a second. LOL

Just stumbled upon this thread and your math seems close to me speedtigger, I come up with 2900lb/137mph should be @ 590hp and let's say 2700lb/135mph @ 525hp.

But anyway this thread was good for a laugh!
