Good God! WTF just happened here! Leaving the hole @ 8K

1st gear boggs til 7k, then all hell breaks loose as he

Revs drop back to 7k or so when they immediatley jump past 10k and he grabs third...... What the bloody fek..... is going on here!!!

his all new set up was built by robert here in mckinney tx at forced performance. beautiful work if you ask me. and yes, NUTS is the best way to describe his runs.

I wonder what the gearing is in that thing. 3 shifts puts him in 4th.

if you calculate with this formula - stock tire size/stock 4th gear ratio/stock final drive you get 10,318 RPM @ 180mph

rpm = (mph * gear * final * 88) / circumference

Gotta keep the revs up when you are running 50 PSI on alckey. Now if he would just lighten that thing it would go so much faster, its incredable just how lil weight reduction is in his car.
