Shep ran a fast mph..
Well, last night he made a test pass @190mph with boost alone. But he broke, rod bearings and something about oil? LOL.. They fixed some of it last night, the rest this am. Then...8.00 @ 195.11, all was fine. Then...7.70@191.... SUPA!! LOL, then he went to eliminations and blew up. He is satisfied and happy though, and so is everyone else, HE DID ONE HELL OF A JOB, AS ALWAYS!!!!
^copied from a friend of mine, who's husband is on his team. Sounds like he's doing quite well. I can't wait to see what new shit he plans to throw at it over the winter.

That's just fucking nuts. Literally and figuratively.

Re: Shep ran a fast mph..
and a solid rear axle setup..amongst other things. The car looks like it's all over the place, but it's not as out of control as a recent pass at the other track-that looked like the damn ams evo! He went across both lanes. scary!

Re: Shep ran a fast mph..
Amazing. The AMS EVO had alignment issues, that is why it was all over the place. Combine that with 900+whp and you will have major problems.

Re: Shep ran a fast mph..
Actually, it was a right rear wheel bearing, but yea the alignment was affected.

10 I think.
he could inject 4.2 GALLONS per minute at 100% IDC 
and would burn 2.1L in an 8 second period at 100% IDC

Re: Shep ran a fast mph..
This is just some crazy shit. I was reading on another board and when someone asked about about a shift light and Shep said he'd never used one, just always shifts by feel. That's some impressive shit for the power and speed he has to control.
I can't wait to see what his car will do next year!

Re: Shep ran a fast mph..
I offered to buy a nice glossy signed photo for my office, he doesn't want to make any money on that even. He might be too nice of a guy.

I saw that, Jakey did to. I'd hang one of those in my cube at work, no question about it.

Yep, I've tried asking before as well without success but he did mail me some ShepRacing decals.
