Bombshell Betty on a C license run. It was stuck in 4th on the Rev limiter but still sounded good. Having transmission issues but spirits are high. Just an honor to have the opportunity to be out here. Today is Sunday September 8th 2024. We're adjusting the clutch and going for a record qualifying run. We only have 4th and 5th but we'll start in 4th and shift at 140 mph to 5th.

had a few clutch issues this year and could not build much speed unfortunately. Danielle was driving this year. the university in Salt Lake did such a good job on the car. they basically went through the entire car from electronics, engine , transmission , rear end , basically all of it redone. hats off to them.

Also, in the future could you please post a video showing how far the wheels are able to turn. You must get that question ALL the time ! ( I saw your comment on the rubbing tire - was it the front, or rear one ? ) Car sounds incredible. Two more questions : So I notice you added a back window to the car. Did you pick up any speed with that change ? And finally, are you back home now, or still in Austin ?

A UPR oil catch can and a UPR bullet 1 way breather kit. They go hand in hand because by just adding the oil catch can without a breather will restrict crankcase airflow. I could’ve just went with the oil catch can that has the breather but I wanted to do them separately and have my crankcase pressure relieved from my oil cap.
