Second run 1.65 60ft 10,43@141mph
Third run 1.58 60ft 9.95@146mph

All passes on E85 and in the logs i see maximum boost 30.45PSI

im suspecting clutch slip (after seeing the video) but in the car it felt like if i were spinning the tires.. no slipping in 4th gear?

the clutch is rated to 700nm/500lbs so im not surprised...

looks like the car could hook better with the rear stiffened up a bit. seems like you kill the bump stops every time you launch. but deff a fast car man! nice passes

The motor made 770hp/650nm on a super flow engine dyno at 29,5psi@8500rpm E98, couldn't go higher because i was low on injector, the power was still climbing when we let of... i used the BW race cover on the dyno but not on the track.. dont know if it makes any difference..

now im on e85 30psi revving 9200rpm so i guess i should be in the low 700rwhp
