Something also impressive is I heard someone in prostreet turned a7.20 at 204mph. not bad for a streetire bike. Also Barry Henson won prostreet on his 08 turbo busa.

I got a chance to meet Larry McBride before that record run. He is a big man 6'3 230lbs. At least there is one class where the big boys can hang. Of course, with over 2,000 HP what are a few pounds.

246 is as close as anyone has been to 250. He will do it next year! I think someone posted, some time back, that 200 was just getting started. 246 in the 1/4 on 2 wheels is just amazing!!! Larry is the man! and his brother is an amazing tuner too!

I dont think its anywhere close to 2000 HP, 1200 plus probably but not 2000..
ET calculator says with 2000 HP and 1260 lbs it would be sub 5 seconds and over 270 mph trap speed.

If you could hook it??? The Horsepower for Top Fuel has never been the problem. Figuring out how to put the power down to the track and stay hooked up is the issue!
