Those were great numbers but I got to admit, I wish it was a tad bit higher. I know you guys can break three digits. Do you mind explaining to me what a punisher plate is?

lol...tad bit higher than 899.5 to the wheel in 90*+ weather on a Dynopak

Punisher plate was built to block off the wastegate for MAX boost. We already knew that the heat inside the little dyno cell would limit us to how much boost we would be able to reach so we built the punisher to help get more out of the system for dyno pulls. Unfortunately it didnt help much because everything was heat~soaked

Maybe my tad bit higher came out wrong. I meant to say, I understand 899 is amazing for the situation you guys were in and there isn't much else you guys could have done. I know you guys are able to hit quad digits before, so I just wished the environment played out in World Racing's favor. I haven't read the article yet. Don't know if they explained whether the temperatures were high. I just see this event and the Modified article as another way to inform the world how awesome Scions can be. I am proud of World Racing.

Its kind of crazy that I am even having a conversation with you guys or you for the matter of fact. Again, thanks for the vid and keep breaking records

so I can continue to tell my friends how proud I am to be a Scion owner.

So rob, your saying that the heat soak was the reason you couldn't make any more boost with the WG plated off?

And the top speed question is good. I see youve hit 180mph, but when will the car run out of gear?
