Yes, absolutely all the seats were in the car. There is NOTHING missing from this car except the spare tire and jack, that's it. Also had 5/8 of a tank of 93 Shell in it. Also yes, absolutely our new "Crossflow" exhaust is on the car, offroad pipe and a prototype 3" downpipe from us is on the car. Boost I have to guess at but I'd say 28 peak.

By the way, congrats David! I'm jealous my Red isn't up to par yet. Hopefully cams make a big difference for me.

I'm running 8000 rpm and for my 275/30-19 tires that seems to be right around 115 mph even though the datalogger shows 118 mph. Next time I'll try shifting to 5th at 7000 so that it has time to actually move the car in 5th across the line.
Looks like if I bumped to 8500 rev limiter like Dave and power was there, I would potentially be able to ride 4th to 122 mph trap speeds with the datalogger reading ~125.4 mph on my particular tire combo.
Either way I'm not risking my engine to get those last few tenths and mph printed on my timeslip. After 8000 RPM it's a big question mark as to how each particular engine will hold together and avoid valve float.

Its more than likely the combination of a higher rev limit and larger diameter tires that could make it possible. Gearing too but I'm sure that hasn't been explored at all yet. Maybe they are launching in 2nd gear and thats why they can't get a good 60' time

Wow, I was shifting into 5th everytime on a 113.x trap. Otherwise I would be riding the limiter through the traps with my 7700RPM cutoff. Could help explain part of my slow times.
Maybe 8500 will be a reality with the Kelford stage 2s & springs I have waiting install.
