The Mighty Max is starting to get some respect, The inaugural Wilmington Mile was held this last weekend and the truck performed very well.
the first pass on Saturday was a mere 154.860 MPH, only 5 MPH better than last year at the track a Maxton N.C. I knew I had a good run going when I saw the shift light flicker (7000RPM, 5th Gear) I approached the lights. Truck checked out after the run so I reset the cockpit for Sunday.
On Sunday I was a bit more aggressive thru 1st and 2nd (smoked the tires in second) and the shift light came on solid before I got to the traps so I was smiling ear to ear after the chute pull on that run.
More info about the event will be posted at www.ecta-lsr.net sometime this week, current info in the Ohio Mile group on facebook.
My tuner, David Buschur was at the event and took a look at my run logs, he tweaked my tune and I'm adding 2 more lbs of boost for June, should be able to top 160 MPH and beat my Bonneville best of 159 MPH.
