At 100 degrees Ambient temp and 700+ RWHP, how many oil coolers do you run in that puppy? That is one big bad dog!

No, spence.
The heat makes the rubber peel off the track and the grip goes away.
Thats when it is hot, a mid warm day is best for grip.

Well done Eddie. I'm also betting on 8's. Have been for a while. Let hurricane season end and the temps drop a bit and it will happen...

Man, that is a fantastic result. And at 100 degrees, no less. Love it. Congratulations to all involved, especially the indomitable Eddie. Must have blown some minds among the usual crowd of small block bozos.
