Good question.  As I recall, it ran at Speedweek in 2019, but not well.  Of course, the salt conditions then were terrible.  I don't believe it came to the salt in 2020, but that could be COVID-related.   Since it made that run (2018?) with 380 out the back door, I know I've been paying attention.

I couldn't open that page, but that's not unusual.

But their record of 364 in C/BFMS is almost 100 MPH higher than anyone else in the category.  I remember him stalling out on a backup run in the first mile. Stopped, reprogramed(?), and still ran over 300 in the five (as I choose to remember it).  What a performance!
