Run looks drama free. Nice driving Sean! Dare I say this car has a lot more in it left to mess with. Like Milton Berle, they pulled out just enough to win. :biggrin
Thanks for all the great comments. We had a great weekend and most importantly it was rewarding with all the hard work that was put into this car by Kevin Kesterson(Hennessey Performance), John Mihovetz (Accufab Racing), and Shane Tecklenburg (Shane T tuning). I hope we can see some more GTs out in October. We were the only GT at the event! The car definitely has more and we will try and make some passes in October. We won't make the Mojave event, so for everyone going out be careful and play safe!!! Enjoy some racing in a wonderful car.:thumbsup:thumbsup

Way to go Team Redneck. I will be at the October Mile as this was the first one I missed and I felt lost not being there.

Congratulations to all who were involved. This is how it turned up in one UK newspaper -
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-acceleration-world-record-standing-mile.html
See "Comments" after the article - I'm always amazed that some people are so willing to flaunt their ignorance in public.

That's awesome! What a title! "Racing driver Sean Kennedy breaks acceleration world record for the standing mile!"
First rule of the internet - never read the comments section. :lol

I would like to here more about your choice of Coils. I see they are no longer {Coil on plug} Did you do that so they are in a cooler place and is there a performance gain with those type of ignition coils?
