Soroush thanks for the video. It seems a "little" bumpy in the braking area! :ack
 
Last minute your number 1 from Mullet how nice :)

Man that bump right after one mile looks terrible.....
 
It was a good run. Thanks for the video.
 
Thought I would post a quick reply about our experiences at the Texas Mile this go round. All in all, I have to say a big THANKS to Hennessey Performance for being able to put together one fast car and to be able to put a number down like 235.1mph in those conditions speaks for itself. In working with Hennessey Performance we decided to try something nobody had really done and my hats off to Kevin and Dwayne and all the other guys in the shop that had a hand in this build. I think it is very important for everyone to know that the first true pass on this car netted the 235mph with no break in on the motor and no street time as well. We did do two shakedown runs to get to qualify to run for unlimited and once that was accomplished we decided our first run on Saturday morning would be the one to see what the car would do. No doubt we could not hit the car in 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd gear but hoped to be able to mat the gas pedal to the floor in 4th and 5th. Just so happens that the car held forth somewhat well and 5th was no problem with traction The track conditions were not the greatest but with the power we put down we were able to run in the windy conditions and overcome the bumps down the runway. It was great seeing the fellow GT owners out as well and we look forward to a larger turn out in October once the weather calms down a bit. I have tried to post a link to a dyno of the car but not sure it will work.

video works :thumbsup

Can you tell us some details on your build?
 
Do boost-by-gear in that car. With a little fine tuning you can get the perfect traction all the way up the track.
 
Congrats. Looking forward to seeing what it will do in October.
