I didn't get there until about an hour before they shut down because I was in Orlando at SpeedWorld drag strip, but I did get to see the Injected Performance car run at Orlando then it rained for like an hour.

I didn't realize they were going to be in Orlando. How did it run?

It was a Battle of the Imports and I wouldn't of known either but I ran into them at the hotel I was staying at. I saw their trailer at the hotel and was wondering what they were doing in Orlando and then we met up and talked for awhile. Very cool guys. I only saw their first run and it was a 9.22@163mph. That mph was insane(Hal didn't have a good launch,nitrous issue).Then it rained for quite awhile and I left so I don't know if they got any more runs in.

I didn't go... It was raining in Tampa and didn't want to swap out street tires to drive there.

Tom, did they actually race yesterday?

That is incredible! Cars don't usually pick up 8 miles per hour in the quarter. Shows that the Green machine still has a lot of room for improvement in it.

Thanks for the info, Tom!

At Bradenton it was nice all day except for a sprinkle that lasted for a couple of minutes.

jb...they upped the boost to 30psi if I remember correctly. They were shooting for mid to upper 8's. If the launch would of been dead on it probably would of been a 8.5-8.6 with that kind of mph......There was a Mustang at Bradenton yesterday that ran a 8.22 @ 167....thats what I would like to see for my Mustang project

Wow, that's a lot of boost. It does help explain the huge jump in miles per hour, though.

I can't believe how fast cars are in general now. What kind of power adders was that Mustang running?

How's your Mustang project coming along?
