PIn any case, I made my goal to beat Motorweeks best factory time of 17.4 @ 80mph (mostly). I managed a 17.348 @ 79.10mph with headwind gusts of 25mph (see weather reports for Beaver Springs 4/8/2017) and a gradual incline from the line to the traps of around 6-12 feet. Over all, I'm satisfied for a car with 94hp and 89tq @ 2140 (plus 250lb. 6'4" guy) and although a 16.999 would have been nice to see, I'm sure I'll manage it at some point in the future.

Managed to record a video against an Evolution X, that somehow only managed a 16.091 @ 97mph to my 17.348 @ 79mph.

Any comments, feedback, questions, or otherwise are greatly appreciated!!!

Nice, man. Think about it this way, that 17.348 is late 70's camaro/firebird territory

I for one, would love to see an iQ beat a camaro.... (and I used to have a 1973 T/A)
