Gee thanks Walter,
You didn't have to mention the boost thing  :-)
I am not sure why my hand rolled back on the throttle after shut down.  I will address this over the next month so it does not happen again.  But for those that want to know what the run log says I did.  Chopped the throttle at the line and then when I reached for the brake rolled back into it to about 50% throttle making 10psi of boost.  Hit the corner at 177 with a rear wheel spin of 11-15mph. When I took the left side of the cones (not to hit the cones) rear wheel went off the track side ways (spinning to 220mph) back on the track to hit a cone (broke my right side fairing)(crap!) and then I made it to the end of the track..... no problem  :-D

Sorry to all for the 5 minute delay

No problem Bill.  We were worried about you not the time.  Glad you are okay.  The guys in shutdown always worry about stuff like that.
