Might be the same reason you keep your car parked at that same race , we can't risk hurting it before this event. I've been to plenty of diesel only events this year , helped sponsored a few , and provided a vehicle for a few races . We have a big weekend planned .
The bug could go 150+ and the mustang should go 200+

went testing tonight on the highway , and this thing hauls butt. I hit 5500 with the short 5th gear , and the gps read 132. so a change from the .825 to a .658 rear gear will get me to over 150 easy.

Mike and JohnBoy, are going to get there sat morning, as will we, with Project X Diesel "The Beetle' .
They are going to spend friday doing developement work on the Z28 and new stand alone bosch factory ECM program .

that thing is wicked at 6000 rpms

the great part about their work is that during the first few days of Drag Week , John was absolutely emphatic that a second pump was need and that the NX mustang was using all the fuel that the Industrial Injection Dragonfire pump could make . by the end of the week , John had changed his mind in that a single pump could make huge power, it was just the ECU playing tricks .
now the rail pressure is as high as John wants to tune it rock solid all the way up .

This is what you get when you get extensive data logging equipment , together with the right people .
