I found this at http://www.pro-blend.com/spconst.html It could be that they forgot to update, so I dont know, just what I found.

Hey, Ilike,

I am still sorting out the car. As it is, every pass I make I set a new record, however, am currently only competing with myself. The 208 was the record I set in August 2003 beating the 19 year old 193 mark, the 254 with the same car at the October 2003 meet, see scta-bni.org click on World Finals, then results and then click on Oct 18 results.

At the salt to run Gas you have to be certified as using only their gas from their truck. ANYTHING else is Fuel. I did the "fuel" record on my own 91 octane, but the mph difference had almost nothing to do with the change in "gas". Still sorting things out.

It feels like there is around 265 mph in the car as it sits. I'm going to clean up the shape a bit over the Winter, and maybe add some mods to the motor. Basically right now the motor is 98% bone stock right out of the wrecking yard.

All the best,

Jim
