Yep, I have (3) seperate printouts from (3) pulls, two of which he went over the 6500 RPM limit given to him. The engine was an original 289 Cobra competition engine with original dual points (no limiter). He not only made the mistake once but twice. I also have a photo of the Smiths Chronometric tachs tatle-tale needle at 7400 RPM, taken after the "operator" was done.
