For those not in the FB group...
Car spent a few days on/off the dyno straightening out some minor but important issues. Then went to Texas Mile to make sure it's solid for April BBORR.
With conservative AFR and Timing, the car made 699WHP with the boost solenoid at 50% and rev limiter at 6600. HP had not peaked. So more RPM or more Boost is there, but don't need it for now. Found another problem at the mile, but my last run the car was 100% and my driving was OK. Did not launch hard, but after that pretty much used what power the car was going to put down with my road tires/setup. Ran wing/shocks just as they will be for BBORR. Was finally able to earn my Class A license!
Made 184.7 with a good head wind. There may be 190 in it with no head wind and a bit better drive. 200 would take removing the wing or turning up the boost. Car drives much better with the wing, but down the road may need to take it off... I do want the 200 T-Shirt.
Interior video is from a car OK, poor drive run - I think I hit the rev limiter in every gear; 182 IIRC You can hear the car hit the ground just after the finish. Outside video is the 184 run.
