Jared91 you are quite the hardass arent you?

I would think you'd have to be VERY trusting of your setup to attemp a 200 mph run. Damn I cant even image the **** that would be trying to vibrate loose on mine, I'd have to loctite everything on it

There's also the Mojave mile around the same time. It's less crowded although I would think the DA is worse.

Well the video of flaco running the vette from 80-180 had to cover some ground at those speeds. It didn't come apart that time. I guess if it does he will see just what those hands of god can do. At quarter mile speeds above 140 plus that leaves 3/4 of a mile for you to run out of gear and rpms.

I'm sure he would be changing the gear for this. I would anyway. I've always wanted to try it. Looks like a lot of fun.
