Default Flaco sets new record for a truck @ Texas Mile
Truck went 192.9 mph. on 10 degrees of timing, previous record was "correction" 192.0. He is turning the timing back up to 15 degrees next pass and shooting for 200 mph.

Yeah, he still beat it. I knew a Lightning went over 190 though. Hope he hits 200+!

What's up with your truck bro? The last time me, you, and Flaco ate @ Chilo's your new setup was being built, what kind of power did you end up putting down?

It's done put 888hp and 875tq @ 23lbs, Flaco was there when it was on the Dyno. Now it's close to 1,000 hp @ 28lbs. Best run at the 1/4 is a 9.95 @ 138 Tell Flaco GL for me again on the 200+ miles that will be a great accomplish for a Truck
