Nothing great has happened yet. The LMR/KP racing/Sixspeedinc/Bise racing Camaro went 217.
The fastest standing mile car Ford GT Went 252 ish on its second pass this afternoon.

A blue nitrous Vette lost its hood and shattered the windshield, but I heard they were able to find replacements to keep on going!

A white Z06 made its first ever pass with 150mph cap without issues.

Both vettes prepped by Fuel Injection Specialties

150 mph cap? Why a cap? Is that new or was that imposed by the driver?

It's just the way they organize things nowadays. They gradually let you increase speed until they give you the OK to do all-out passes.

My buddy Todd went 209mph on a shakedown pass today in his TT Porsche. He's got more left.

Sunday morning's DA will be where it's at. I'll probably make the drive to check it out.

Looks like it may have rained overnight. Either that or the hotel sprinklers were on overdrive. Sky looks gray and foggy

Went 206.3 this morning. Weather is decent for racing but horrible for spectating.
A warm front is blowing through around 2:00.
