Hope to go to the track in the next few weeks. It's gonna be tough but i'm gonna try. The only comparison I can use is Infraredline's car since we were so close racing. Last year before his ZZP S2 cams he was trapping 119mph. And this year he dyno'd 370/292 with room for more. I will for sure be on the dyno by the end of the year. Just the only track days left I happen to be working so I have to swindle my way around that if I can.
