Just so hard to comprehend the torque numbers that little motor has to be making to pull a 2.91 gear!  must sound AWESOME

 I too am amazed. Also at how much liquid is going into the engine...imagine the 392" naturally aspirated engine running at 8000 RPM and TWO guys each pouring in their own full 5 gallon bucket of nitro at the same time...straight into the engine in 60 seconds.

 Choke! :o  Cough!  ???  Gasp!  :P

 I'll be trying for two SIX gallon buckets in June.

110 pump blanked off?  that is a TON of fuel!  I gotta get up there this summer.  Let me know when you're going to run. It's like a 8-10 hour bike ride. I'll need a couch though. or a work bench. or a shop floor. to sleep on.
