Congrats.

What kind of wheels do you use when on the slicks? I realize you don't want to dyno with that setup but I bet the rotating weight your giving up by dynoing the car with the heavy stock wheels alone could net you 20whp at this power level. Maybe find a set of cheap, light wheels to throw radials on for future dynoing?

Great numbers.... I imagine the high compression engine you run helps a lot with that number!! ( the Lucas' 481whp...)

Otherwise, congrats on the new numbers nearly 1100 whp is AMAZING!!!, funny that the misfire was a broke wire... some times it is the easiest of things that stall us the most!!

Some good advice I once got,,

If you hear hoof beats, thinks horses, not zebras


Anyways.... both of these cars need to get to the track and post some times!!

Congrats guys on a Clean dyno run....the graph looks great. Should even be better when you get it to spool a little sooner. It's amazing how the little bugs can haunt these race cars, especially when you've gone thru a rebuild like this. These oversights plague the best teams in the World. Hell I've seen teams fold because they couldn't figure a problem out....so congrats on finding the broken wire Things will get a lot easier to sort out when your not paying $150 per hr for dyno time.


Lucas Great job 481whp...simply amazing

Keep breaking records and we'll keep giving you the hottest spark available

I agree track times are in order! The car goes to my suspension guru today so he can get cracking on her
