He was comparing the three runs of that day, what was good about each run, and what went wrong on each run. The 6.20 at 230mph, its the possible "calculated" run, if the car makes all of the good numbers of each run posted on the board.

He does not talk about where the power is coming from, nor of any changes.

I'm sure they sold the 4 rotor to someone who will be putting it on a chassis soon enough.

The QSR BMW is no longer running a 4 rotor either, but a 20B instead and tuned by PAC.
