No, I never hit the bottle in any of my runs. I didn't even bring it to the track.
That's awesome then! Great to know that an aftermarket Kleemann S8 holds the 55 and 63 records!

But...to be fair to the OEM 55K and 63 guys, you should disclose all your other mods besides the Kleemann S8 (except VRP cams vs. Kleemann Cams).
Pistons, rods, valves, tranny, torque converter, custom ECU, smaller pulley, intakes, cooling, headers, exhaust, LSD, etc....

His video clip shows him running 11.03 so he did in fact beat Nitrous Nate's 11.05 based on the attached clip.
