Looks like it ran 152 mph. Still fast enough for a chute!

[paul2010]

Watching the run it looked like he was running half throttle.

[Supercharged SS]

I would think so making that much power. I'd bet that thing could get itself into the 8's. Does it have s full cage?

[paul2010]

Yeah they have a full cage. I bet it has plenty more to give.

[Supercharged SS]

Paul, how's your car been doing?

[Graham Behan]

All,
The best mph was the 152.33, the next best was 152.28. The best 60 ft was 1.412 and I would like to thank Justice Pete for our shocks!!
More to come!!

Best Regards

Graham.

Congrats guys. Nice runs...

Just one question - what is the "strange" spike on the dyno run around 4,000 ? Thanks...

Gear shift?

[Graham Behan]

Tyre slip when the nitrous kicked in.
