Still waiting for results to be posted, but Underground Racing did hit 241.15 mph in their Huracan.
That's outright stupid, 241, holy hell.

I ran 153 and like said above was a few psi under target. Been having some issues with the car for last last couple months and have not been able to figure it out. Fwiw ran 155 last year at the same boost level I was hitting this year.

We had some issues... attached is a pic of our car Weds evening. No excuses, but it is what it is. The turbos are fine, don't listen to the naysayers. We ended up with a camshaft position limp that we couldn't fix at the track. The 154.xx run was done at 23 psi. We're not happy about our performance but we have AZ NFZ coming up that we hope to make a good run or two in.

That's not entirely true, but mostly is. An AD-E car ran 160. The setup was a little more strict this year versus previous runs, lending even greater credibility to some of the WR's broken by the insane guys.

Richard Fowler hit a 247.25. It's INSANE. Words can't quite express, those guys are on a different planet.

I'm not sure it'd help you much; Tony couldn't get the car into 5th gear. Synchros weren't playing nice. Sigh...

Thank you for your support, but AD-E ran faster at (I think 160). We all had a blast drinking after though. Haha

Amazing. They're NUTS. Like I said... they're on a different planet. Beautiful cars.

Yes, they were running c16, hence no PI. Great run. Andy was there and we had a blast getting drinks after.

Carl, was very happy to get to meet you and see your car. Sorry we didn't meet up after for drinks -look forward to the next meeting. Your car is super clean and beautiful, even if it doesn't have VTT turbos on it (yet).

Overall, mixed feelings. On one hand we didn't get the performance we wanted, on the other hand we gave it hell, got to meet lots of awesome people (and put faces to names), we have AZ NFZ coming up, and we had a blast hanging out with people after. Can't wait to do it again.
