Here's the onboard video inside *and* outside of Jason's 221 run.

YouTube - On-Board at 221 MPH - Ford Hennessey GT1000

It's LOUD outside at 221.

...and here are more of the Porsche's 201 mph spin....buttload more to come.

There's a plethora more, but still going through the haunted house model shoot from last night.

^ Thanks. Brad suggested I use the launch control to heat up the clutch after this run on Saturday...it slipped a little at peak torque...

This was the best event yet. Spinning Porsches, Mustangs on fire, a rolling truck and of course some amazing speeds. Well done beaviscih, you just keep getting faster all weekend.

After 3 rolls, this truck no longer looks like this.

Was that the same truck that ran last year? Blows that it rolled. Here's hoping someone *cough, Tre, cough* has pictures of that.

I saw the truck roll. It started to spin way before the 1/4 mile mark. By the time it rolled it was only going 50-60mph. Driver was fine.

So many stories from the weekend. I'll try and post up some.

distorto · 10-19-2009, 12:41 PM

your car looks clean compared to most of the ones i saw...the butterflys were worse than our mayflys or lovebugs.

I think you're right! Congrats again Bill. It was a lot of fun running with you this weekend.

The LandShark ran a 182.055 on 22psi. I was pleasantly surprised with that. The motor has proven itself to be strong. It's got quite a bit more left in it, and that will come with time. She'll be back on the hunt again in March.

My battery crapped out, so I've got no pics or vids from the weekend. If anyone can send me something, it would be appreciated.
