I mean, it is pretty awesome, don't let me take away from that, but 200mph... in what sort of distance? Obviously you're going to need around 400-500whp to pull 200mph in one of these cars, but was there a limited distance? If it is only a mile... not bad at all.

If the runway were like 2 or 3 miles though... big deal? Car did sound good though. :)

i think the speedparty is a standing mile. which is very impressive, this car has competed for a few years now in this event and has done 185mph, 195mph, and now 203mph! its a fully built 7m with a big holset turbo and r154 tranny if i remember revving to like 8k rpm

curious if there was any tape used to seal up body gaps? - headlights/hood/fenders..

at those speeds it would make a difference...

The gearing isn't terrible, all things considered...

Does make you wonder, every little bit does help, but given the distance, enough power and good gearing, I can see it being pretty easy to achieve without that...
