it didnt end up running on sunday. bit of a suspension and engine failure apparently. it was lifting its wheels high enuff for you to walk under it and it come down pretty hard and done some damage on saturday. mick said that its 60 ft time was good enuff for a 7 sec pass but didnt quite get there : (. that was on its back wheels as well. fu<kin insane. wheelie bars are now on the shopping list as well

Yep Abel Abarra (sp) has run 6.8XX in his RX8 but no one has reached the terminal seed of 200mph +.

what do you mean by terminal speed? that normally means that something cant go any faster...... but why should a car stop a 200miles? i dont get it. ~TOM
