9.4 - 167mph- Evo 8 El Paso Texas

Eric Jones and I were in El Paso this past weekend and last night Eric ran a best of 9.4 at 167!

I will post up more info when I get home.

This is a customers Evo built and tuned by AMS.

Slips soon to follow.

I'm pretty sure it was the clone. Can't wait to see the video. 167 is moving.

Yes this is the drag car clone.

Like I said the track preparation was not very good so it was hard to get solid launches in.

The 9.4 was with a 1.9 60ft. There is no doubt that with a solid launch it would have been in the 8's.

This thing still has more left in it, as the boost was a little low.

Lol hey Sean!

Chris and I are both on the Mustang till the dynojet goes back in. Then I think Chris will do more on the dynojet as he likes that dyno more.

Thanks!
