Any news on what non-turbo cars have done? Any idea what you guys are running over the mile?

Sounds like a blast.

More updates!

This is hot from a good source.

Sandman = 210 Gen 1 Whipple and 3.90 gears
BlackICE = 212 Gen 1 Whipple and 3.90 gears
Sandman’s brother 211 Gen II Whipple and 3.90 gears

The significant is these including Ed Sims are all Whipple “and” 3.90 gears

Two of the top three GT runs happened today. AlohaGT 236.7 and Apollo banged out a 238.6 on his final run of the day. Big updates and a full sheet of all GT runs to come.


Bring on the regular event tomorrow and congrats to all racers!!!

My reliable source made an error. Sandman's brother did 211, not 201!
