Randi Lyn posted a timeslip where Bo went 8.99 a few weeks ago, his 1/8th time was 5.730 at 120, no idea what the weight was though

I herd that also but I also know that he has broke a few superchargers which means that he is messing with the internals of it, which is illegal.... I hope they enforce the rules on the superchargers!!!

Im sure Bo is not messing with the super charger . He was torn down at Indy and passed . If your going to out run his car you better be able to run 5.80 . He is a pass world champ and knows how to win . He also has a brand new motor ust for this race and it made big power .
The supercharger's on the mustangs break due to heat that builds up in them , then as racers we try to rappid cool them which cause issues with the blades and the bearings . On my 2012 SC 4L car the blades galled on the car after 20 runs and had to be repaired . We now use a air temp sensor from fast to track the heat and keep the intercooler runing all the time . On factory cars with factory ECU the temps go to over 200 degree's on a single run . We are now able to keep the temp to around 135 degrees and save the SC from damage since switching to fast

Mr Kenny I believe we all know that his super charger was questionable at Indy. I'm not questioning his driving one bit and no Im no world champ but we do have one of those on our team. I just hope that the tech guy is versed on them and from what I'm told he's a ford guy so y'all shouldn't have a problem. But yes the chargers are being overdrivin so that the spin faster internally. I'm not the smartest person in the world but when one car has all of the same cars beat by two tenths, then i guess he's just that good, RIGHT? Lol too funny!

Yall gonna make us soup up the car. I tried not to, but I guess I just can't stand it. This really could become somethig nice to do in spite of the good natured jousting, or maybe because of the good natured jousting. Bo, how about that lawyer yankee guy? Maybe my bank could make him a loan to get a car? Just trying to help.

I was looking over the rules and saw wheelie bars aren't allowed, I bet we will see some BIG wheelies!

You gotta tune the suspension, twist the simi-4 link- loosen the right rear shock upward, loosen the left rear downard, tighten the right top bar 3 flats, tighten the left front shock upward, run the tires left 22, right 18. Nothing to it. 715 ft/lb torque works there.

Its always been that way somebody puts alot of R & D and alot of hard work and $$$ in their combination and goes fast. Right away their cheating. I assure you the supercharger and engine is legal! I hate being called a cheater! Thanks, Chris Holbrook |
