I knew about the record being broken but never saw it with all these angles. Good stuff. Maybe that strap was part of the parachute.

Yea and his 8.23 was on a manual shifter. I think people trying to discredit the time due to the airshifter need to think again. This car has got alot more in it. They need to run bigger slicks to start with. What size slicks did ams acheive the old record on?
