Fun event for sure DA was 4000 with 88%% humidity on Saturday. I managed 150.8mph with 660rwhp Caddi.

I saw the sl63 weistec turbo car, it was so sick. Thing sounded like a jet with its dual snail setup.

I hung out with Paul who did the work on the car. Very nice guy to boot!!!

I managed 4 runs as they started around noon and shut it down at 3. Wasn't exactly pleased with the organization honestly. It was nice meeting you in person man and sweet looking beast .

First 3 were 140.27, 140.36 and 140.537. The last one (with esp on) was 141.15. IATs started at ~105 and would hit and stay at 130 by mid 3rd. After shifting into 4th, I could really feel the pull drop. I think ambient was low 80s IIRC. Wishing my meth kit was here before the event. I went in expecting 139 to 140 so it was consistent at least.
It was interesting seeing that my boost was 1 psi less up there at 2800ft than back home.

Not sure yet, pump is working fine. I have the sc tank mounted in the bay, i really think is a bad location not sure what happen but it did catch some air. i will relocate the tank in the trunk and add extra pump in the tank. Right now is running only one pump but the distance is short.

I ran a pube under 145 last year with my set up... I think 144.8 was my best. I really wanted 145.

Great to meet ha as well. And yes, I wish someone would have said what they were trying to do or thinking to do as part of the 3 hour wait.

I'm still pissed I left
