That is amazing. I was wondering what the tape was for. But, when you are going above 200MPH, all those little small details are important...

 

[Q8_Shelby]

Very fast, good job.

[ChiSVT]

So how much compression are you running in your motor?

 

[Blaine@PSI]

9.3to1 ratio on compression.

Hey Blane
What fuel system did you go with to run those speed? If its a in Tank system how many pumps did you go with and the duty cycle your running the pump to achieve those speed. Returnless or return?
The reason I asking is next year I'm planning to do the mile my self. This my be a stupid question do you know anybody that has been above 180 mph with a stock long block?

Congratulations man, that's awesome!

If I remember correctly the 1000HP Saleen S7 TT did 205mph in the mile when Road & Track did a mile test a while back. The insane downforce of its aerodynamics held it back but it's not like our Cobras have good aerodynamics at all so I find that even more impressive that you outdid a much lighter supercar that probably has a good amount of whp on you.
