the car has run 179 MPh the lower MPH is due to Rocky backed off in the top end due to getting out of shape (eastern creek is only prepped the first 400ft of the track) wasnt going to run again and risk putting the CUSTOMER car in the wall.

PAC are building a full chassis MX6 it is going to be awesome!!!!
