Just saying a lot of people have made it work so you may want to reach out to them and find out what they were doing. I know youve got a lot of money tied up in your setup, that would suck to toast it because you didnt talk to the right people who know how to make it work.

Mullet ran 220
He ran 228 about 2 hours earlier than the 220 run. DA dropped but that headwind picked up a bunch once the sun started to go down.

Exactly. I really doubt a build of this caliber and this expense would have an oil pump too cheap/weak to return oil to the pan, plus I doubt that a shop like LMR would even make that mistake in the first place. But who knows, I am not there to see what happened for sure. Maybe the fuel pumps were too weak to get fuel to the engine and the engine actually detonated!

Flaco ran 199.7 then backed it up with 199.6.

If memory serves me correct doesn't RCC vetted have stand alone oiling for the turbos.

I don't see why it wouldn't. It would make sense and be a good idea to have a separate oiling system for a big twin rear mount setup like that.

Well out to lunch with the wife, and got a txt from Steven. Kellys TT Camaro just went 239 mph on 20inch wheels... That's right 20's... They didn't floor it til the 1/2 marker...

Like said in a earlier post, LMR is a group of TRUE RACERS !!!

With that being said, Lmr should give it another go and try to take the record! That would be a great finish!
