It was pretty funny. At Englishtown while Kurt and Joe Nova were sitting in the staging lanes a track official came up to check that it had been thru tech. He laughed and commented on how non track worthy it looked from a distance. I think it is certified to run 8's. Maybe Kurt can chime in.

I think it's gone 9.6-9.7 so far at 145+ mph with slicks. Still tuning and sorting it out. He did the burnout for fun, didn't even try to make a pass that time.

The car has steel wheels made by stockton wheel, 11 inch in back with 7 inch in front. It has 295/65/15 drag radials on the back.
Once the tires spun the run was ruined, the rest was just for fun/entertainment. Car got pretty loose at the 1/8 mile so I shut it down. That is the longest burnout I have ever done!
I broke the torque converter on the chassis role before the pump gas drags, best we seen was 750's at the tire. The engine made 1160hp at the flywheel in testing, that tune will go in now that power tour is over.
Best et so far was [email protected] on 93 octane at pump gas drags on drag radial tires.
Power tour was lots of fun, except for the ticket in Florida. All I did was spin the tires!!

Kurt

PS: after that run I went up to Charley and asked "where's the Mule", he answered NO......

That car is so cool. I videoed the 10.01 pass too, then was sitting next to Charley when you ran the last 10.06. Funny thing is, it was a let down to see you run a 10.06. lol I wanted to see 9.99 on the board. No one else was even close, but the nova was doing business.
