    The 6.95 pass had much better early numbers, than the 6.94 pass. the 6.94 pass was just run out the back door. It was at 151 mph at top speed but ran short of water in the traps and slowed to 145 at the finish line. The boat was a lot of fun to drive and I want to thank John for letting me do it. In bako it will run even quicker, as elsinore is a slow track. Probably a tenth to a tenth and a half.

    Truly amazing what you can do when you put a really small pulley on the top and a big one on the bottom. let it eat.
