Car is back together this morning. Hopefully we will fire it up by noon. Coolant pressure and boost pressure all check out great. We adjusted the suspension as well. GoPros are charged and ready. Plan to trailer the car around 3pm and head to Beeville in time to have dinner with MBailey. More updates ASAP.

Hey Bud,
I know there are much anticipation and expectation of your car doing well at the Mile. Just take your own pace and relax... we all know you have a fast car and you don't have to prove it to anyone.
Be Safe!

Guys, it was a good day today. The weather in the morning was ideal. Mike Bailey FINALLY got his 200.9MPH. Congrats Mike.

All new rules for the Texas Mile. You must qualify at each speed level to be allowed to run 200+. So I ran three times 154, 177 and 194. Each time I was at 170+ by the half mile mark . I'm going to run early tomorrow morning while the wind has died down.
