I'm not clear how that equates to the 1/8th (what kind of whacky track is that?) but it looks pretty quick. The speed is there. No clue.

**** 160 feet should be good for another 3-5 mph no?

I'm going to guess 12.3@ 110 mph with 10lbs and a 50 shot.

80mph = 117.30'/sec
so to travel another 160' should be ~ 1.36 seconds take into consideration that speed is ever increasing we can round it off to 1.25 seconds (scientific huh!)
estimate 1/8th is 8.1@83.5mph Puts you in the mid to low 12's. Then again, i could be all wrong

12.6@105

Not bad breaking it down. However, I am curious to know how much wind resistance and at what rate he is accelerating from the 500ft mark to the 660ft mark. That would be a badass physics problem to solve.

Also with him being a turbo and with the 80e, will his truck be alot better on the top end of the track rather than on the low end??
