            First official lap by Steven is the fastest official lap ever by Voodoo....
            Interestingly the website is still using the 8.1034 distance for the calculations on the website not the reported 8.0851.

                If this is true, would that mean the 492mph speed was really around 497mph?

                  They are using the longer measurement, so his time will actually go down about 1.1 mph if they correct the timing charts to the 8.0851 distance.

                  @ the old 8.1034 distance 59.209 seconds=492.699
                  @ the "new" 8.0851 distance 59.209 seconds=491.587

                  I am guessing the timing gurus did not tell the web guru about the change, so the calculator on there has not been updated yet.
                  Here are the distances since 2007:
                  2007: 8.4803
                  2008-2011: 8.4333
                  2012: 8.1034
                  2013: 8.0851

                    Did Strega and the Bear not run their qualifying laps? Czech Mate and Precious Metal?

                        I see on FB that this speed was on the qualification motor - and a race motor going in tonight.

                        How much faster will that be?

                          I would think the qualification motor was their fastest one.

                              Lol sorry! Drink another beer, that will bring the buzz back. I have a feeling they might have been shooting for 500 with that qualifying run?
