The reason I guess is because I can. No photoshop here. Just no air restriction or powertrain loss. I was letting her run for awhile when some jackass commented on my Life begins at 180 MPH shirt. I told the jerk the car is capable in excess of 200MPH without the restrictions. He bet me 100.00. So while the car was at 214 I decided to take a photo.

Thanks for the explanation.

Since you have a dyno handy, what does your car put out?

thanks

I am guessing 375 hp as it is a stock 9k miles 91 engine.

I thought you might have glanced over at the dyno numbers at least to catch the rwhp.

You did do this on a chassis dynanometer right?
