Sharif, what kind of speed are you reaching at the 1.25 miles mark ? I ask because i remember seeing some 720bhp (crank) GTR's in england running 1.25miles with a top speed of 175mph+. Good runs by the way Hope you break the 200mph mark!

Suhail

 

word, i get scurred at 140mph.

 

Good work guys. Cant wait for the videos.

 

Be safe guys.

Brent I will call you later this week.

 

nice work, hope you get to the 200 mph mark!

 

damn you know everyone is watching this thread now... good luck and stay safe guys.

 

Good luck guys, be safe.

 

you guys gonna try again tomorrow?

 

Brent let me pilot the car for the 3rd attempt, and this time, we started back and additional 1/4 mile, to give us a little more acceleration room. Trap was 182mph, and I could tell me simply hit a brick wall at 6500-6600rpm, and the car was just barely accelerating any further...if at all.

So looks like 183mph is the max for today. The wind has really started kicking up, and the car was slightly drifting to the left of the racing lane. We are calling it quits. Now Brent can start the 2nd day of his 5 day ralley. I am sure with more boost, and an early morning run, there is more to be had.

 

Brents vehicle weight = owned 200mph goal...nice job though

 

Keep it safe out there. When will the videos be posted?

 

Sounds like you guys are having a great time...

Go fast and stay safe...

 

200 200 200!!!

Great to hear some live updates about this


Do you have any vids????

 

I know he has more than enough power even at 14psi to get to 200mph. Did you guys consider taking off the rear wing or adjusting it? 3900+lbs now with a cage is a TON of weight, even then M6's can hit 190mph legit weighing 3900lbs with 500 crank hp, the downforce must be too high in BRents set-up

 

Sounds like a lot of fun. Take some good pics and be safe.

 

Hopefully in the morning yall can pull it off.

 

woohoo, bump for 200+ mark. cant' wait to see a vid. keep it safe.

 

Power to weight for the 200mph point is probably what killed him... More boost / power sounds like it would've hit the 200+ mark, but the nasty fuel issue comes into play then. In any case, 183mph in a show car / vert is INSANE. This has to be one for the books.

Congrats to Brent, Sharif, and everyone involved.

Great job guys

 

Sounds like a lot of fun...be safe ! Come back alive !!!!!!!

 

Sharif were you guys still faster that the rest out there on the final run?
